PM: Long run with Nathan in Columbus this afternoon.  Harrison Lake and back from house.  Ran in to Tim Proctor on the way back.  Quads are very sore from yesterday's race.  Worked some of it out, but got back into an uncomfortable state near the end of the run today.  Its in the 30's temperature wise again, which sucks.  Still - Nice run, good company.  14.75 mi. - 1:58:xx

PM: can't stand it - got out and tried to jog - 3.34 miles slow and painful.  7 miles hard on the bike trainer - at least that doesn't hurt - 18:00 or about 23 mph.

Tried to WU the legs before running to bar for the UK/UL game tonight - went hard for 3x2mi. on the bike trainer - 10 miles total in 28 minutes.  Jogged over to bar - 3.67 miles slow and not as painful.  Plenty of beers to drown my self pity.  UK won though!! Elite 8!!!
