Valley Park loop.  No bathrooms were open which is ridiculous in my opinion

20 minute warm up followed by 6 x 3 minutes on 2 minutes off.  Mile cooldown. The sixth one was hard.  6:10-6:30/mile pace depending on where I was running.  Maybe I can find some speed again

Felt beat up today.  Adding choreography rehearsals to my running is making me very tired

80 minute run.  I went way too hard on RDLs yesterday.  My lower back, glutes and high hamstring hurt pretty badly.  I need to go get in the NormaTec boots

I am so beat up. So, today was short. Consistency over perfection!  We have a family reunion next week so it will be a down week. I should be able to get good runs on Monday, Friday, and Saturday.  We will shoot for 30.

8 with Tee.  Felt horrible.  Not recovering well.  But, it was a crazy week.  Off to family reunion!
