| Ran the Flying Pig Sprint at Camp Friedlander. I felt pretty good for about the first 5-8 minutes, then I sort of hit the wall. I was handling the map poorly and being lazy about the map reading, and I made three hesitation errors and a couple poor route choices, probably setting me back at least 1:30 in total. |

| Late at night, I ran from home, through Good Shepherd, down to Gasworks/BGT, along the canal trail to Sound Mind and Body Gym, back to Fremont Ave, up Fremont Ave and past Woodland on Phinney (fairly hard--threshold interval), down to Green Lake, around the lake clockwise (doing 6x30-sec. fast stride intervals along the way), a couple minutes up Ravenna, then within a few minutes of home. The harder parts are logged separately. My legs felt passable--although I had some hamstring tightness/fatigue and a bit of pain in my right soleus. I stopped running and walked the rest of the way home when I felt a twinge in my left calf. |
