Foothills + run home - 2:26
Did a long run today. Achilles was sore throughout most of the run and my energy levels weren't great, but made it through, so I'm glad for that. Started on the greenbelt and took the Castle Rock trail to Table Rock road, and then went up Rocky Canyon road until the Curlew Ridge trail comes in. I took that to the military reserve, and then ran home and added a few miles in the neighborhoods. Total run was at about 7:20 pace; the last 10 miles once I got out of the steep hills was at 7:02 pace. Great day for a run, with the exception of a quick rainstorm when I was in the reserve. I do feel a bit more motivated now than I had the last few days and I think getting good sleep this weekend helped me beat the cold I came down with. |

Canal banks + neighborhoods - 35:38
Pretty good post 20 mile run. Left shin sore (just like last year at this time) but achilles ok. Not much leg soreness other than the shin - probably due to the slow pace yesterday and low mileage last 5 days. |

Run to gym + treadmill - 48:58
Had our 1st track meet today, so I ran late. Ran down to the gym and did some running with the incline up on the treadmill. +3.5% on the way up and then about -2% on the way down. Just trying to get in a little more hill work for Robie. Shin still sore, but definitely runable. |

2 mile wo; 6 x 2:00 hills, 3 x 1:00 pickups; 1 mile wd
Ran to the gym and did the workout on the treadmill. Set the incline at 5% and ran at about 6:00/mile pace. Pickups were at about 5:55 pace. Felt ok. Pretty easy workout, but the shin is still really bothering me.
Core and stretching: 15 minutes |

Rocky Canyon Rd - 1:20
Ran the last 5.5 miles of the Robie Creek course and then back down. That last 0.8 miles is a real ball buster. On top of that, there were some snowy sections still and the backside looked pretty mucky. We shall see. |

1.5 mile wo; 1 x 600, 3 x 400; 1.5 mile wd
We were able to practice at Borah High's track today. We started with a run on the canals and then I paced the distance runners for some intervals. I hit 2:00, 1:18, 1:17, 1:13. I jogged for 2-3 minutes between while the team walked for that time. It was a great day and we got in a good workout. Drove to Twin Falls after practice. |

Noon: CSI - 33:53
Steady paced run. Really warm out today - I was surprised by that. Ran to CSI and back and did my standard 2 loops on the trail. My first mile was way slower than I used to hit when I did this run in college, but the rest of the run wasn't much behind.
PM: Neighborhoods + Borah track - 35:34
Didn't feel great tonight but got some miles in at 10 pm after driving home from Twin Falls. Shin was pretty sore and I was a little bit dizzy (blood sugar low?) |
