Running 46:22 [3] 6.0 mi (7:44 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann-Rice short. This one was all over the place. Started out feeling pretty good (which is usually the kiss of death). After a mile or so, everything became really hard for the next 3.5 - legs dead, no energy, bleh. Then, down the homestretch, it turned around & I was able to finish on a good note. Whatever.

Running 35:01 [3] 4.4 mi (7:58 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann loop. Short after-work run. Just wanted to take it easy, but the insane wind had other ideas. Crazy headwind for much of the first half of the run played havoc with my pace. Legs felt heavy until the last mile or so. Off day tomorrow.

Running 45:20 [3] 6.0 mi (7:33 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann-Rice short. Really focused on keeping the legs turning over on this one. Really solid effort. Honestly, not sure how I'm managing this pace the last couple of days. But, I'll take it.

Running 50:40 [3] 6.6 mi (7:41 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann-Rice short + braes short. Actually felt surprisingly good and really kept the legs turning over throughout. Nice mid-morning weather (my best time of day for running too) helped.

Running 48:34 [3] 6.0 mi (8:06 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann-Rice short. Lovely cool morning. Yeah, the calf was still somewhat sore, but not terrible. Everything else felt pretty good though.

Monday Feb 18, 2013 #

Note
(rest day)

Planned rest day. Worked the calf over a couple of times pretty thoroughly with the stick. Still a big old knot in there...

Sunday Feb 17, 2013 #

Running 39:55 [3] 5.1 mi (7:50 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann + braes loop. Gorgeous late-morning weather. Calf about the same, but everything else felt solid.

Saturday Feb 16, 2013 #

Running 51:53 [3] 5.5 mi (9:26 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Pure Grit

Trails with Chris. Not sure about the distance. Maybe it was less. Don't really care. Felt fine, although the calf remains tight.

Friday Feb 15, 2013 #

Running 41:21 [3] 5.1 mi (8:06 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann + short bayou loop. Nice chilly morning. While the pesky left calf is still a bit tight (frustrating), everything else felt fine. Is being 100% healthy for maybe like just a month too much to ask?

Tuesday Feb 12, 2013 #

Running 41:30 [3] 5.1 mi (8:08 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann + bayou loop. Did this one after work. The calf was a bit tight throughout, but it never got worse. Otherwise, everything felt a-ok.

Monday Feb 11, 2013 #

Running 36:17 [3] 4.4 mi (8:15 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue

Hermann loop. Pretty much a 100% running effort. Didn't feel too bad overall. Need to watch the calf - a bit of tightness.

Sunday Feb 10, 2013 #

Running 36:59 [3] 4.4 mi (8:24 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann loop. Mixed in a handful of short walk breaks during the first couple of miles until I had a sense of how I felt, then it was nearly all running after that. Didn't feel too bad overall. Hopefully, the UR crud has just about run its course.

Saturday Feb 9, 2013 #

Note
(sick)

Tried to run, but quickly turned back as the crud that settled into my chest made it hard to breath. Felt totally worn out. Ugh.

Friday Feb 8, 2013 #

Running 31:42 [3] 4.0 mi (7:56 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann loop (cut off). Legs felt rested (duh) and the calf was fine, but the upper respiratory crud that I've been fighting over the past few days was definitely a drag. A solid pace, but it felt like I was running 400 repeats.

Tuesday Feb 5, 2013 #

Running 34:23 [3] 4.1 mi (8:23 / mi)
shoes: Pure Connect - Electric Blue 2

Hermann mid-loop. Ugh. This wasn't so much a dead legged run as it was a dead everything run. I had nothing this morning. Pretty sure work stress and lots of sub-par nights' sleep have caught up to me. On the plus side, I made it out the door and the calf wasn't an issue.
