running 1:28:00 [2]
shoes: nike wildhorse 2

2 laps of hilly, rocky trail at west tyson - connector, flint quarry, back on chubb. think i pounded the calf muscle into submission. but at the end, the achilles and right foot hurt so much was considering pulling up. My own worst enemy.

Even splits, 44,44

running 35:00 intensity: (10:00 @1) + (20:00 @2) + (5:00 @5)
shoes: NB ffZante

Ambivalence about whether to try workout translated into physical reality. 2 x 600 w/ 4R @ 2:18, 2:18. Stopped to massage tight calf, but nothing helped, so bailed. Pretty sure the calf/achilles/ankle/knee is part of whats slowing me down.

track in light rain.

3 x 800 @ I pace w/ 3R, 3:23, 3:13, 3:10
Long break for communion service and heavy rain dovetailing nicely
2 x 1 Mile @ T pace w/ 2R, 7:15, 7:00
2R
4 x 200 @ R pace w/ 1.5R, 41, 40, 39, 40
heavier rain at cooldown

What this is all telling me is...I'm in the next phase. 'Phase 3' is over, and now going forward to more restorative and skill sharpening workouts before the flurry of races. (translation: I hope I can salvage something from all that hard work, heal the beat up body and pick up some positive energy)

shoes: adidas adios boost

Foggy. Ran to track, did 2 x 1200 @ I pace w 3R...5:03, 5:05. This was one of those times when it felt right to bail halfway through. Still groggy. Slept something like 6 hours on Monday (during the day! in addition to night's sleep!) - and every time I go on a run my injuries cycle through like a series of blinking red lights in times square. Think positive! Think positive!
