Clyde's Comeback!

8 miles in the morning. Middle B-hills to secret street and back around LV. Slow but felt better than Saturday. With temps warming I'm just happy to be out running and enjoying it. The framers have been working on the addition but it's kind of slow going. 

7 miles this evening. Middle B-hills to secret street then home. Lunch didn't sit right and I had a crash landing at the restrooms in the B-hills park. It was bad news. Other than that I felt pretty good and seemed to be clipping right along. 

DC loop. 38 F this morning. It could stay like this all year long. Just cool enough for an extra shirt but warm enough for shorts. Felt pretty good this morning in the hip but the whole system is weak. Spent way too much time on the end of a shovel lately... body is sore. 

Long run this morning. Started out on the Wednesday boys loop. No one else showed. For selfish reasons I was sad because I really needed the guys to pull me around the first lap. But in the end it was good because I had to stop twice for big potty breaks along the way and would have made them late/mad. Just tried to get through the first lap and save as much energy as possible for the second. Got home took a gu and shed a layer of cloths. Started back in the opposite direction and upped the effort. Ended up hitting the second lap well under 7:00 pace. Actually finished the entire run at a 7:09 avg. Felt pretty good- hope it continues.

B-hills extended through the Secret street. Felt really wore down this morning. Just overall tired and blah. Hip actually felt pretty good amongst it all. Cut the run shorter this morning because I'll try to do some kind of ride/run later today. 

 48.8 mile ride this afternoon. Did 3 loops up Snow Canyon then back down SR9 and around. THREE. Took the first one pretty chill and stayed with the group. Then really tried to hammer the second. Set a new PR of 17:22 from pay house to pay house up Snow Canyon. My old record was 18:40. Then continued to roll out the whole second lap. As I started the climb for the third lap I could tell there wasn't a lot left in the legs... things got really slow before I got to the top. I was done and had used all my gas on the 2nd lap. Finished that lap and ended at the truck in the parking lot just below the Snow Canyon entrance. Transitioned into the run.

4.5 mile run down the Tuachan road then up to Tuachan and back. So I was either running up hill or downhill. For as trashed as I felt on the bike I still ran a 7:01 avg.

DC loop. Super trashed this morning. Wanted to do anything but run. But labored around the loop. Got home and was 150.5 lbs which is the lowest I've been since last summer. I think I was up to around 165 lb back in January when we were in Hawaii. 

Had a lot of thing going on today with family in town and Mylers 4th Birthday party... but bottom line is that I just didn't want to do anything. So I took a good recovery day.
