Out past the old barn on canal and then back. Legs were a little looser this morning. Not sure what to expect on Saturday but I will do my best. I had to cut back some the lasy month or so as I have been fighting this damn injury. My average pace was 9:08 with a total time of 28:40. Upper body weights and some pushups to finish.

See you tomorrow.

35 Minutes on the elliptical and then lower body weights to finishe up, right lower leg seems to be coming around so I might try a run in the morning.

See you tomorrow.

I felt decent through about 6 miles but then the wheels started to come off. Lack of downhill training will do that! I was proud of myself for not run walking I just tried to keep the old legs a moving the best I could. I feel like this is course that I could do well on with the proper training.

I'm going to take a few days off and let the quads get better.

See you soon.

Out to Mini Gu Corner and back. Lower left leg seemed like it was good but we will see. My average pace was 9:20 with a total time of 57:17, I finished up with some upper body weights and some pushups. Legs were tired like they were the last 5k of the race a few weeks ago. I sure wish they would come back to how they use to be I'm a good minute slower on my easy runs and about 2 minutes as far as race pace is... Not sure why.

See you Monday
