Canal Banks + neighborhoods - 50:52

Felt much better than yesterday. Kept about a 7:30 -7:40 pace until the last half mile (which I finished with Leo). Strange though...I feel completely out of shape with less than 2 weeks off. I was thinking about how it was in high school - I could go a couple of months over the winter without running and then run 30 second 200s the first day of practice. Now just a short layoff and I feel like I'm starting from scratch.

Greenbelt - 51+

Ran with Mat from his new house. We went upstream from the DoubleTree and did a good amount of it on dirt. Pace was about 7:30-7:40 on the paved sections. Shin sore, but runable.

Weights, core & stretching - 20 minutes

A.M. - Ellyptical 20 minutes moderate; weights- 25 minutes

P.M. - Canal Banks - 20:02

Easy easy jog with Leo in the mud. Shouldn't have run - irritated shin pretty bad and got no aerobic benefit. Need more time off from running & more x-training.
