6 AM

running 50:00 intensity: (10:00 @1) + (40:00 @2)
shoes: NB ffZante

after interior warmup, to pocket park for gravel/asphalt mini-loops. out and backs on gravel so as not to disturb Mr. and Mrs. Duck nearby. No strides, but into a rhythm of 'fresh' on outs and 'jog' on back. Attention to left leg and hip, it is really distorted and tends to twist a little, so consciously ran w left leg as lead leg and it felt odd, like it was numb or not entirely in synch with the rest of the body. Better not to focus too much on that, just be aware, relax and work w whats there.

Oops, bit of a scheduling/changing of gears snafu. 5Q workouts in the last 7 days. No wonder I don't much feel like running today.

lindenwood track and campus. went to deliver some donated shoes, and did my workout before the meet started. stayed to watch the meet too...really enjoyed it, but had no idea it was going to be practically all day and the coach wanted to do the shoe thing after the meet.

running intervals 23:00 intensity: (4:00 @2) + (19:00 @4)
shoes: adidas adios boost

6 x 800 @ 'I' pace w/ 3R. Meet was getting set up, so had to dodge steeple barriers and crowds of athletes walking across the track at times, but their presence also helped motivate me. 3:11, 3:11, 3:13, 3:15, (lots of dodging) 3:12, 3:11. I pace based on Vdot around 48.5...not quite where it should be for the mile, but getting there.
