I am taking it easy until the overtraining indicators move back from yellow to green. I could go for some high altitude work.

I figured I might attempt a speed workout just to see what would happen. But the workmen who have the muscles all taken apart for maintenance complained loudly, so I did some elliptical followed by two miles of TM at various speeds, including super fast. The neurons were on speaking terms by the end but I will continue the rest week to gain maximum advantage.

I didn't take my watch this morning because I thought the run was going to suck somewhat, but apparently the rebuilding is complete because I had the best water tower canyon run ever. At least I think so, hard to say without the watch. I almost never needed to stop and walk! And coming down was scary fast. Definitely time for some high altitude work on Saturday. Hope the weather holds out!

Standard gym route with upper body thrown in, was very zen-like this morning. I barely remember it.

There was no way I was going to run in that rain, but when it cleared up later there was no way I was going to miss it. Perfect high altitude workout - I drove to 7000 feet on the Squaw Peak Road out of HC, then ran to the top and the other top, then ran back. There was nobody up there except a bunch of giant birds and a couple of bow hunters. Almost chilly, but not quite.
