| PM: 71F. 3.8 @ 8:28 AP. Recovered decently from yesterday's run. I tried something different yesterday - drank my chocolate milk with BCAA powder at the halfway point, versus at the end. I have a pretty tough running stomach so it worked out ok. Anyway I think it helped...we'll see how the week goes. Recovery has always been one of my biggest challenges with running. I'm older but not THAT old, ya know?

| AM: 68F, 93%. 10 @ 8:09 AP. Legs felt super cruddy. I know it's only Tuesday but I think my goal for the week will probably go unfulfilled. Unless 400s at marathon pace is a workout. New goal: do a workout NEXT week (and no marathons this weekend).
PM: 84F, 50%. 4 @ 8:18 AP.

| AM: 69F, 92%. 14 @ 7:36 AP. 10 miles easy, followed by a 5k tempo in 20:53, then a short cooldown. I did the tempo without checking my pace...probably smart because I was running pretty hard yet barely hitting MP. Mmmmmkaaaayy.
PM: 75F, 76%. 5 miles exploring some of the back trails around Leon Creek. They have a pretty extensive network of singletrack but you have to know where you're going or you can get more than you bargained for (like I did). Some are good for recovery plodding, and some are good for switchbacks and slashing / stabbing wounds. Next up, 2 recovery days...

| AM: 65F, 70%, raining. 6 @ 8:06 AP. Felt a lot better today - same 6-mile route as yesterday, but 10 minutes faster.
PM: 67F, 67%. 4 @ 8:01 AP. Ran around lunch and it was still cool outside from the storms. I did a few strides too, the first in weeks. Need to do more. Don't really want my legs getting locked into 8 minute pace, like they have the last 400 miles or so.

| AM: 62F, 94%. 18 @ 7:31 AP. A much more reasonable LR this weekend. Picked it up to 6:30 for the last mile, which felt easier than the previous few miles. I think my legs get tired of running a constant pace after awhile.
