The race took more out of me than I thought. My calves were sore til about Wed., partially because of running in racing flats, partially because my mileage is minimal enough that a hard 10K takes it out of me.
Sun- ran to parent's, tacked on a little more along the canal road, just recovering 3m
Mon-30 min run in 'hoods, a total blur as to where I went, partially due to recovery, partially due to emotional meditative state, life is more than running, running helps me meditate, think, pray and cope with life 2.5
Tues-easy run, ran along canal roads out and back, 3m; basketball good, while my running suffers due to outside factors, my basketball does not, I slow it down more and think through offense and defense, what I'm doing and did before, how to defend effectively both my own man and helping out the team, when to shoot, pass, fake, drive; the firefighter labels me as a "drunken ninja" and notices that I'm running around more. I'm down to 184 lbs. since November, that makes a difference
Wed-after long talks with many, subbing at Westlake for Music theory/Orchestra, ran in Grandpa's cemetary, found equestrian and bike trails, ran "in the flesh," did 2 sets of 30 push-ups to round out work-out, 2.5 miles, played ball 3 on 3 with finicky ward, wouldnt be in it w/out crazy arching Tommy boy 3 point shooter, my shot started out poor and got better (no w/u), played against the Never-does-anything-wrong-general
Thu-no motivation, rest needed, 3 on 3 ball, just working the system, mostly won
Fri-skiing at Brighton, got a lot of runs in, stormy but great powder, didn't stop for lunch, did runs with Uncle Doug, Richard, George, explored the poweder in the trees, Milly bowl, Richard lost his ski, once had to hike out 100 yards with George when went too far W. from Millicent, some hip/quad soreness
