Today was the weeks long run, and we went to The Grange. I felt ok, a bit tired, but I could hang in. I ran 1:32 for the whole run, and felt pretty tired afterwards. Tommorrow will be easy.

Easy run today up the Boulder Creek path up into the canyon. My left calf is super tight from all of the track workouts this last week. I need to get working on that.

Today was a good workout. We did 4-2-2-4's, meaning 400 in 63, 200 rest, 200 in 30 then 400 rest. This did not feel too hard, and we hit all the splits in time. At the end I got a bit carried away and ran 28.5 for a 200, but I toned it down afterwards. My calf is really tight again today. I had it massaged out before practice and it felt good during the workout, but afterwards it really tightened. I will do a lot of stretching and foam rolling. Oh...on another note, Wetmore might throw me in a 3k this weekend at Potts. As long as I feel good I am fine with running it. Hopefully I can run fast!

Today was a good medium paced run at The Tank. It was really windy and hot, but overall I had a good run. My calf hurts a bit, but I wore a compression sleeve so everything was ok. I will probably run very short tommorrow.

Really easy today in south Boulder. I could feel my calf a bit, but I massaged it out like crazy. There is a bit of a knot from all of the trackwork we have been doing. I just need to be ready for Saturdays race.

Well, today was a shakeout for my 3k tommorrow. I can't really believe that I am racing this soon, but I guess I will try my hardest and hope for the best! 3k...that's pretty short anyhoo...haha:)

Well...today was my first ever 3k off two weeks of training. I ran 8:57, which is ok considering it was windy and cold. I definitely feel that I could have run faster given a bit more speed work and training (and a sea level race :)). I had no real kick either. Aerobically this was not too hard, but I am not in the groove to run really fast quite yet. My calf hurt a bit during the race too. I really need to pay close attention to this.
