4-5 easy (PM) My legs are tired, I need to unstick that hip.  I'm convinced this all originates from my weak left hammy, I should probably 

Tried out some dating apps and geez they really try to suck you into their app.  Just a turrible way to spend all your time. I will keep spending time on them. Zoom dating here we come.  

sims*, consolidate problem sol'ns from yesterday*, figure out SM 1*

Majorana paper- why majoranazz yo

My legs felt tired today.  First mile was an absolute beast, maybe that's why felt like crap for the next few after that.  Calves and quads tired but hammys and glutes are feeling good so I'm happy with that.  

Behind on work as usual but if I got a big day tomorrow we got good prep for the rest of the week.  Let's goooooo.

I felt pretty tired today- did not sleep great last night.  My legs are a little sore from all this running I've been doing lately.

I felt good at the start of the run today but my back was tight in the middle of the run. I also felt a bit tired miles 3-8 but otherwise pretty good. I think the wind messed with my mind for that middle section, once I relaxed a little bit I felt better and sped up again.  The climb back to the house felt good though.  6:15ish a mile, 800 net elev, 70% hard surface. Back, left hip, lack of fuel.
