| My body is tired but little soreness from a full out effort yesterday. Easy trail run this morning. Not a good day to tack on a lot of mileage. Did a short afternoon workout and felt better. Evening: short 20 min stationary bike workout. |

Lunch run. Detected a little soreness while stretching but none while running. Set out for an 8 mile run using metronome set at 90 BPM. Felt tired half way into the run, so I shut off the metronome and shaved a half mile off the distance. Need to be a little rested for tomorrow's speed work.
Relaxing 3 mi sunset run using ChiRunning technique.
Currently, I'm not happy with my weight or the amount of sleep I'm getting...

Long morning run at a slow pace. Energy levels high, but feet and ankles were sore. Lots of unavoidable hills which aren't ideal for long training runs.
After a nap, ran an easy 4 miles in a new pair of Asics. Morning foot and ankle pain was gone. |
