Wasn't sure what I had in me when I set out on this morning's run. Didn't sleep well, didn't carb up yesterday as I had planned. The 7-mile warmup went OK, even with a significant wind in my face for a while, but the left quad started tightening in the MP portion. And the double out and back meant I still had to deal with the wind some more. But after a bad sixth mile (8:20), I put the hammer down, well under 8:00 pace for all four remaining miles. The result was a 7:56 average for the MP portion, which would put me into the low 3:28s at Bayshore. I'll take that. Then at the WRA clinic that slavedriver Staci got me to run another 3.55 with the ladies. Very slowly, but I'm glad I did. Legs feel better after I finished than before I started. Nice 20.56 mile day... |

| Recovery run after work. Decided to stretch it a bit into a GA run and add some hill sprints. Went pretty well, felt strong on the sprints and maybe even a touch faster. HR stayed in the 130s all the way, even during the sprints (not long enough to get them up high and I took extra time between to let HR come down below 110). Pretty good run, all in all, and took me over 200 miles for the month. |

| Stress reduction run after work. I'd intended to do a tempo run at 6:00 am, got dressed but never got out the door and eventually went back to bed for an hour. Tonight, I was completely frazzled and I needed to burn off some frustration. So I gave T some money to get his (and my) dinner and headed out. Then I ate and crashed. Felt a little twinge in my left hammy early, but that didn't last long. Otherwise nothing special. |

| Up at 4:30 to run with Sherrie. I wasn't sure how much the legs had in them after finishing a run at 8:30 last night, and sure enough they were complaining after six or so. Sherrie had enough time to do 9, so we did that and I called it a morning. Not quite up to Pfitz' schedule, but this week, I think, is just about surviving at this point. Just get in what mileage I can, get through the week and deal with training next week. Now for my shower and a little nap before work... |
