PM: 30' on the trainer. HR 150.

Haven't felt like running at all.

Went to the bike shop to figure out what I was doing wrong. Got it to mostly work, enough to do 30' on Zwift. I ended up coughing really deeply and ended up vomitted up lunch. Good times. Cough been going on 10 weeks on Saturday.

PM: 4 miles w/ Megan, averaged 10:10. HR 145.

Didn't feel like running. I was in a bad mood and I'm just really off mentally and lack of focus in everything I am doing.

PM: 8.3 miles, averaged 10:28. HR 143.

Dark and chilly but good run. Waited for jury duty for 7.5 hours and never got called. I was hoping to be more a part of the process, but I guess I participated as required. I read a bit about training with a power meter for cycling. Very data oriented stuff. Much more complex than running which is both interesting and (of course) expensive.

I'm shifting my focus to cycling for the future while still doing a decent amount of running to maintain weight (currently to lose weight) and destress.

PM: 4.5 miles on the treadmill.

Wasn't really feeling it. My attention sucks right now and the treadmill isn't the best option, but we got 8 inches of snow and it was partially slush and partially frozen.
