At a track meet all day but got in some broken up running,

I absolutely ran out of fuel today. After I got home and got some food it was no big deal but it always feels terrible to run like that.

Out with Cara and then Oz. Feeling tired and still a little beat up from the treadmill last week but getting better.

Out with Oz and then added on. I feel like I might be running toward an injury so I'm going to have to take it easy the next few days.

An easy run with Ozzie and then a few more. I explored a new way home from the school. It works pretty well to add another ~20 minutes.

I forgot to enter this on Tuesday I think so everything since then is off by a day.

Had to go help run the bullpen at Dan Gabor so no run for me today.

Same Sunday run as the last few weeks. It was a nice day for a run with a slightly overcast sky and nice temp in the mid 60s.

Running in the rain with Cara and Oz. I felt fine but wet.

Long run with Ozzie and then added a bit more to bring it up to 16. We actually missed most of the rain and managed to stay almost completely dry!

Just an easy run. I felt pretty flat today but no pain ... thats just about what I would expect.

4 x 5 minutes at tempo with 2 minute jog. Easy running to finish off.

On my own. I felt good today, but couldn't shake the feeling that I was plodding a bit. We will see how tomorrow shapes up.

With Cara for a while but mostly on my own. Still feeling like I'm plodding a little bit but the time was pretty normal for that loop. Perhaps my legs are just flat after coming up quite a bit in mileage from last week.

Lifting and then a run. Oz had already put in 7 so he came with me for a while and then I finished up on my own.

4 x 6 min with 2 minutes recovery and easy running to finish it off. I probably ran harder than I should have but a stressful day will always do that to you. It always feels better after running!
