Two, 3 hour out and backs. Used car as aid station. Nutrition was good, could have used a few more calories but felt pretty good. Had some hip flexor tightness the last 10 miles, had to walk run last 6 miles. Drank 6 - 24oz bottles in 6 hours. Ate Hammer gels, Endurolytes, pretzels, half of peanut butter sandwich, and many Mike and Ike candies. Didn't impliment run walk pattern like I would at race, should have done this, may not have had hip flexor issues if I had. 16 miles of run was gradual incline, anywhere from 2% to 6% incline. Basically, first 8 miles out and second 8 miles out where slight incline. Overall, pleased with run.

still injured, however, the pain is subsiding and my range of motion is getting better. I will run tomorrow.

continue to have pain in left upper trap and left scapula, pain still radiating down to mid left back from upper trap, no running.

Very limited range of motion in neck. strained left scapula and upper trap, pretty painful, pain radiates down left side of back from upper traps to mid back, no running

60 min easy run with 6 strides at the end. I felt pretty fatigued, but that's good for this week, running tired and fatigued.

good trail hike with wife and kids. carried my 50 lb 4 1/2 year old up hill for 1/2 mile, then carried them both on my shoulders for last 1/2 mile of hike. Felt good to stretch legs out and work some fatigue out.
