Overall anaylsis:

Body feels good, not as strong as I used to be, and I need to grow my endurance (comes with time and consistency. Need more hills, feel fine until I hit the hill (to be fair the hill has a 18% grade though). Ended on a downhill to train legs to run fast when tired. Stretching and massages will be necessary to stay healthy.

Running thoughts:

Should I get another pair of shoes? I have a new pair of Hoka's, but might be smart to invest in another pair to swap every other day to ensure maxium shoe recovery. Maybe something for trails so I can run more in the mountains? Maybe the same pair? Need to start reseaching shoes

Overall anaylsis:

Ran the first 3.1 miles (uphill) hard (21:11 for 5k time), rest (downhill) easier. Heat is hard, need to get better at running when it's hot. Legs are tight from this weeks run, need to stretch and massage more, going to roll out tonight. Need to make nightly walks a thing to help cool/wind down

Running thoughts:

Need to drink more water, find a water bottle and always keep it full. Want to start reading more running books, any recommendations? I also want to be more thorough with my data logging, should pay more attention to how I feel during runs and immediately log so I don't miss anything. Any other suggestions?
