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.

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.
