3 miles on TM.

Met with Scott (PT) about my quads.  He said I'm not recovering enought.  I'm just so burned out and really grumpy about running.

MCT with Brittanie - 72 degrees.  800's with Brittanie.  The goal was to go slower and I did.  But I couldn't go faster if I wanted too.  This is stressing me out.

Long run with Tyla on the MCT - 64 degrees.  I finally resorted to taking Advil before the run and felt like a new person.

Tyla had a workout and I decided to just put forth "effort".  I was surprised at how long I held on for!  Finally gave me a speck of hope!
