6.1 miles, 52:03, 8:32/mi.

Return after a three day absence.  The nausea seems to have passed, at least for now.  Once again validated that more than 2 days off in a row is not good for my running.....legs sore.

6.13 miles, 53:41, 8:46/mi.

Many ridiculous things noted today.  First, its crazy that 3 days off would my speed and endurance so badly.  Second, its absolutely crazy that my inner hamstring would get sore suddenly on day 3 of the 3 day break.  Third, the aches and pains post-run today are equivalent to a long hard run, not a short easy run.  WTH?!?

Mixed road/trail run.  Still feeling unwarranted fatigue but the legs felt like they were thinking about starting to come around today.

10.06 miles, 1:12:49, 7:14/mi Steady State run.

This run came out of the blue.  Just hopped on the run and motored.  Body fell into a nice steady rhythm and went, no warmup required.  It got tough the last few miles and the effort jumped the last couple just to hang onto the pace but all it all it felt great.  One brief GI pit-stop at 6 miles.  

Not sure if its related, but just prior to the run, I got two pops (one per side) out of my pelvis by squeezing with my adductors.  Could that have "reset" my pelvis and fixed a malalignment?  Whatever, I'll take it.  And I'll sleep well tonite!

10 very slow miles.  Just plain tired.  A serious mental effort to make it that far.
