Here we Go

Nice quick run in the Fieldhouse today.  First 1.5 miles was at 8:48/mile pace.

A little bit of interval training at the Fieldhouse.  

Nice run today.  I actually ran around the gym at my church since I was watching my son.  Learned the hard way that running 1.5 miles barefoot after not doing it for a year can really be painful.  Hopefully these hot spots will cool down.  

Nice quick run today.  I started off at around 8:00/mile and kept that pace for about the first 1.6 miles.  After that I backed off to a little under 9:00/mile.  Felt great overall.

Nice easy run today.  I planned to hit 3, but my knee was acting funny.  I didn't want to push it and end up hurt.

Nice run up the canyon with my brother and son.  It was a icy, but not a bad run overall.  

Great run today.  I had to wait for my wife to pick me up from the gym so I ran a lot longer than I planned.  It felt great though.

Nice run over through River Heights/Providence/Logan.  Did my hilly route.  

Nice steady run on the treadmill for about 30 minutes.  

Quick run over the top of River Heights and back home. I ran today in 7:30 pace. The entire run took me about 15 minutes. It felt awesome.

Ran up to campus and back on the road near the temple.  The first half was at 7:30/mile pace.  The second half was a little slower at around 8:30/mile. 

Today I ran into some problems. I started out a little bit stiff, but it didn't seem too problematic until I hit about the mile mark. My legs absolutely locked up at this point. My calves honestly haven't heart this bad since the marathon. I really don't know what happened. My plan was to run 4, but it became quite clear that was not going to happen.

So I'm pretty sure that I've got stress fractures or something. My muscles aren't the least bit sore, but I can barely get through a short run without intense pain to the point of not being able to walk around for about an hour after a run.  I'm probably going to go see a doctor for this before too long.
