AM- I went on a loop down by Smith and up around Rose Crest and down Juniper. My foot is still way sore, but the run didn't seem to bug it at all luckily. I slept with my strassburg sock on last night to stretch out my foot, it seemed to help. I slept like crap last night though, last least I was lying in bed for 2+ hours before I fell asleep. I felt okay on my run though. 7:39 pace for the run.
PM- I went out in the heat with a workout in mind and felt super sluggish and kind of sick to my stomach. I did push through some decent tempo though and had a good run. I ran over to Butterfield Park and ran tempo from there to right before Smiths (2 miles). My first mile was 5:48 and the second was 5:34. I felt good once I started into my tempo other than the stomach was unsettled. I could really feel the heat at 85 degrees, I know I am a wimp right now. I ran up Rose Crest and back the same way as this morning. The last half mile I busted out a 2:35 to give me 2.5 miles of tempo and a 6:59 average for the run. It took me forever to get cooled down after this run, my face felt flushed for quite a while. No pain in my foot on my runs which is good. 6.5 miles
Well this was my last day of summer and now I am back to school for training tomorrow, BIG BUMMER!
