| | Happy Easter! Got up early to get this run in before church and brunch - ran with Cooper down to the dog park, 2 loops, and back. Nice and easy, hamstrings a little sore from yesterday but I think the golfing really helped. PS - Thanks to the internet (how did anyone ever live before the internet?) I figured out how to do a "soft reset" by pushing a bunch of buttons on the Garmin and it is now working! |

| | This run gets a 2 out of 10 on the enjoyability scale. Although it was randomly sunny (with a backdrop of black ominous clouds) there were crazy gusts of winds and bouts of sprinkling. I had a weird annoying side stitch and my ankle felt weak / tired. So I quit at 3, I'm a loser. Then we went to the bar to watch the Blazer game (ridiculous its not on basic cable, and DirecTv is ridiculous for not supplying us with the NBA channel!), they're losers too. They better pick it up on Thursday! |

| | 4 miles this morning before work around the neighborhood. 70 lunges after, then my legs were jelly. Felt sluggish and blah. |

| | Couldn't get out of bed this morning again, so ran before class again. It started pouring and then hailing and then hailing HARD (like dangerously!) right before I went out, so almost didn't make it, but then it was dry for this whole run. Fluctuated between a 4 and a 6 on the enjoyability scale, was going to stop at 4.5, then decided to do 5, then felt a little better so decided to do 6. Pretty slow, TT: 59:00. |

| | Took Cooper around the block this morning, did 1 mile and my ankle tendonitis was still bothering me so I decided this was a weekend off from running. I wish I could just do whatever I wanted and stop having all these left leg problems! Its soooo incredibly frustrating. Then a ton of cleaning, yard work, etc.
Later - 1 hour tennis match (I finally won! 6-1, 6-1, though I played #2), and our team won too (first team win, shockingly enough!).
