jumping on the tramp is good recovery.

10 easy on the parkway. 

i felt like my right calf / soleus was tightening up a little on me saturday night and a little yesterday. happy to report that it didn't and i ran this morning pain free. had the typical soreness and some tight spots that loosened up after a few miles. Time to focus my training for the last few weeks before the taper.

took me about 3-4 miles to feel halfway decent this morning. my hips were tight and I just didn't feel like running. at about mile 5 I decided to pick up the pace a little to see if it made the hips feel better. it did. by the time I finished, I wanted to go a few more but didn't have time.

Met JP and Daniel at HHS. Warmed up with a lap of Sugar House Park and then headed to the track. I was planning on some decent effort 400s, but knew my legs were tired so didn't know what to expect. 

My pace felt fine and manageable and I gradually got faster. I had a hard time with the 200 recoveries though. I felt like I was slow in getting my heart rate down. Don't know if that was due to being tired and still feeling Saturday's long run / workout or what. I am not too concerned, was just interesting. My left leg did start feeling a little weird on the 6th repeat and I didn't want to push it too much further. Ended up with 8x400. Pushed the pace chasing Daniel on the last one. He clocked a 64 and I obviously was a ways behind.

We finished up with another loop of the park. I would have liked to get 10 in, but I think I might try for 4 more later this afternoon. It was good to see JP again. He has been out with an injury and is now moving to Arizona on Friday. He is a good dude and has been a stalwart at attending the morning runs. Best of luck to him in his new job.

13 watchless miles. 

Felt good to just run and enjoy the morning. The weather was great. Rain had stopped and it was a little brisk, but felt nice. 

I guess it is time to ramp up my miles a hair over the next 3 weeks before the taper. I might even toss in a few doubles, which is pretty rare for me. We shall see.

Don't know what is on the docket yet for tomorrow. Suggestions?

Another 20 down. 7:14 avg

Daniel drove out and we ran 10 out and 10 back north on the parkway. Pretty easy effort out and picked up the pace a hair on the way back without thinking about it. 8 in the 6:50s on the way back. Nice to just chat and run and have 20 done by 8 am. Took a gel at 10 but no water the entire run
