1/2 mile warm up followed by 3 miles on the track keeping HR as close to 141 without going over as possible.  No significant improvement from my first MAF test 3 weeks ago.

After taking 3 lazey days in a row (I can't rember the last time I didn't exercise for 3 straight days.), I headed out with Blake this morning for a 20 mile bike ride. I expected to feel fresh and strong, but the opposite was true. My legs were heavy.

After the bike ride I did a 5 mile trail run which was pretty sluggish as well.

Avg HR 138

I figured I'd head out into the desert for a long adventure run this morning. I loaded my hydration pack with the water bladder, 2 water bottles, a baggie of S-Caps, and a few homemade gu packs.  I ran some trails I haven't run before. It was crazy with really steep up and downs for the first hour and a half, then it became more runnable for the second half of the run but the trail was very loose sand which wasn't easy to run. It's a good thing I finished when I did because with about a mile to go I finished off all 100 ounces of my water.

16.5 miles
