Clyde's Comeback!

Didn't run today. All-n-all I'm pretty jacked or trashed... However you want to put it the legs need some rest. But I did eat a big hot dog, some pizza and a coke at Costco for lunch. Then on the way home I bought some raspberry filled doughnuts (it's been years and they tasted great) at the gas station and ate 3. Did some laundry and other chores around the house then made some batter and used a oil cooker to cook up some of the halibut I caught in Alaska. It was most EXCELLENT.  As you can see I'm a little bit of a fanatic about my diet:)

Another nice day off from running. The cool weather was just a few days late in getting here. It's turned rainy and cool outside and far cry from last weeks upper 90's. Sigh... Hoping next years race (which falls on Oct 6 and later in the month) will be a cold one. 

Went to wrestling practice at Dixie State College. I'm going to be one of the coaches for their new club program. There is a new wrestling/ weight room building and we're just in the ground work for starting a real wrestling program here at DSC. There are about 12 kids out to practice so we'll see how it goes. It will be a good reason for me to work on core stuff and flexibility along with exposing Myler to wrestling at a very early age. 

Out and back into B-hills. 55 F this morning and it looks like it wont get much warmer than 60 F all day. Would have been a good day for the race:) 

My legs felt ok. Quads are still really sore, hammies are fairly sore and calves aren't sore at all. I didn't need to run today for fitness or the legs but more to help with my stomach and regularity. If I don't run each day I get really "off" schedule. 

Same out and back as yesterday. Almost cold this morning. The high today was 63 F. Not sure how it got so cold so fast. Last weeks avg high was like 96 F. Legs are still pretty sore but starting to run their course. This happens when the soreness moves through the legs. It's gone from the quads (but their still sore too) to the hammies and kind of into the calves. Although calves are pretty good. 

Just didn't get a run in today. But it was 39 F this morning as the overnight low. Dang that's actually cold. It could be that any day in December or January here. Had a massive dinner at KFC. Hadn't eaten there in years and it was greasy but tasty too. 

Around the B-hills loop and extended up behind St. James to River Road. It was a beautiful running morning. The low this morning was 41 F here in the valley and with a long sleeve running shirt and gloves it was just peachy. Would have been a awesome day for a race:)

Legs are still kind of doughy. Got through the run but there is no spunk what so ever. It always takes time after STG.
