| Just felt slow. Or maybe old. Anyway, whole effort was work and while not painful, wasn't satisfying either. Probably due to the repeated hill workout yesterday. Actually trying concept of double hard workouts before recovery, per Swedish study. Will discuss more later. Now need to crash.
1.44 / 1.38 / 1.37 / 1.45
Obviously not making progress, so decided to call it quits. |

| Easy run to loosen up. Lots of driving this week, which hasn't left much time for workouts. Started out slow because L knee was showing some paiin, but didn't get worse so kept going further than anticipated. |

| Reviewed map from the rogaine. Figured with more planning, could have been much more efficient with my route (we got the map 5 minutes before the start, so everyone just took off). Strategy would have been to more carefully overlap the segments, so each would have maximum points if the running went well. As it was, I had some dead runs at the end of several legs. Might have picked up 200 more points for the same distance, a significant boost. This format requires careful planning, as each run is relatively short (5, 4, 3 and 4 hours), and you have to make sure something worthwhile is left for the next legs. |
