morning - 14.5 PVHS/Town/home.  Ran over to practice where we went into town by Dixie College and then I ran home.  It started a little chilly, but I didn't think it would be too bad; however, the wind blew in a cold sleety rain that had me pretty frozen by the end.  (Triumph silver 525.8)

afternoon - 6 Lower Grapevine.  Nice easy run out to Lower Grapevine.  The dirt wasn't too wet from this morning (although it was still pretty windy) and I felt pretty good - hip not bugging much at all.  (Cumulus gold 626.9)

AM - 6 2xAC.  Bigger mileage yesterday allowed me to sleep in and just catch a few today.  I realized I really need to be careful not to get caught up in the mileage and doubles and all that.  I am feeling good (legs felt amazing this morning) and running pretty fast and that is because my mileage is down so I am fresher and healing up from injuries and stuff and now is not the time to push that in the negative direction.  So what I am saying is... An easy 6 today and that is it!  (Free 418.45)

AM - 6 2xAC.  Same run for morning practice.  The time change is really hitting me this week - didn't have to deal with it last week with Spring Break, but now... blah!  (Landreth orange 875.1)

afternoon - 9 Washington.  Good team run out into Dog Town.  Finished up with 8xbarefoot striders and Molly's Desert run.  This week is going to kill me yet.  I hate our track meet.  (Barefoot '11 20)(Stratus grey 716.35)

AM - 12 Target.  Finally got my butt out of bed and did my workout.  Did the same one as a couple weeks ago, but hit it a bit better today in the wind, rain, and cold.  Warmed up 3 and then went 8 at Tinman and finished up with a mile.  Tempo was decent, some below tinman, most just below or at, and a couple up the hills at the end just over - except the last one up Dog Pound, but still pushed hard.  I did notice, however, that my form is struggling a bit.  Last month I was really hitting a good stride, literally, running from the core and with a good leg lift and foot strike - I just felt fast.  I haven't had that for a few weeks and today was no different; I had to work more to keep myself in correct position and just kept slipping out.  Did I mention that I hate this week?  (Ohana racers 530.25)

AM - 12 Mall/2xAC.  Early run to get some mileage in as I won't be able to do anything this afternoon with the track meet - mostly I just want to get the thing over with.  (Stratus black 811.7)

0 - Couldn't drag myself out of bed this morning.  Got to bed late last night after day 1 of the meet and had to get there early this morning, so the extra early time just wasn't happening.

Sprained my ankle pretty good at the meet and was just dragging by the end.  Add those two things to the bad weather and family events and I ended up with a big zip today.

Stupid end to the week, but that is life some times.

Goals for next week:  Get rejuvenated a bit.
