Oh boy. I hate feeling out of shape. It was only 9 days without running? Blah. Well I don't think a run has ever felt so long in my legs yet seemed so short in my head. It went by so quickly, but after about three miles, I was pretty tired. Warmed up with PVXC and ran the Firestation loop from Washington Elementary with Ashley. After, I went to Summit and did the assigned weight circuit for weeks 1-3 of summer training. Soreness tomorrow is inevitable. (DS 459)

Soreness has happened. Not only from the running and lifting yesterday, but all the installing of light fixtures and bashing through wallboard involved in remodeling the basement. I'm feeling like an old granny, hobbling through the house moaning about my back. Anyway, the run this morning was all right I guess. Just went out to Tamarisk and back for an easy 3 miles. (DS 462)

Went to the gym, ran on the treadmill for a couple miles to warm up, then did the weight circuit and stretches. (DS 464)

Got up and did a little loop starting on the trail and coming back on river road. Felt pretty good, legs still quite sore. (DS 467.7)

Fun race this morning! Went up not expecting any great shakes with my lack of training for the last couple weeks. But I ended up winning and getting a pretty quick time! Took off with some of the slower fast guys and just settled into a nice, fast cruising pace down the canyon. Didn't wear a watch but a volunteer yelled out our first mile splits - 5:42. Average for the race was 5:41, so I think I stayed pretty consistent throughout. As an added bonus I was around 8th overall, including boys. Felt strong and happy the whole race, it was great!
