LM warmup (10 reps), 12 mile progression run in 1:34:02, 7:50/mi, HR 158, w/ first 4 miles very easy, 4 middle miles easy, last 4 miles moderate to fast & stretching.

Drizzle/clouds plus strong gusty winds.  Took nearly 3 miles to loosen up.  Faster miles at the end eventually getting down to a 10K pace.  Now I'm tired.

LM warmup (10 reps), 6.5 miles in 50:41, 7:47/mi, HR 154, w/ 10 x 12 sec Hill Sprints & stretching.

Cool (mid 50s).  Took 2 miles to loosen up the legs but then the run went well.  Even managed to find a short hill to do hill sprints on, which felt great.  Some worrisome soreness in the left hip/groin area, but I'm thinking it'll (somewhat counterintuitively) resolve itself as I build mileage like has in the past.  Either that or I'll be out of commission shortly.  We shall see.

LM warmup (10 reps), 8.24 miles in 1:03:55, 7:45/mi, HR 162, w/ 2 mile warmup, 2 x Drills, 6 x Strides, Ladder 1,2,3,2,1,2,3 w/ equal rest, 2+ mile cooldown & stretching.

Hamstrings very tight during warmup.   Uninspired drills and strides.  1 & 2 minute repeats went very well & 3 minute okay (last one was rough).  Cooldown slog to the end.  Really need to get my leg muscles loosened up.
