It was a struggle on this race. I was in trouble after the halfway point. I had stomach and dizziness issues that really slowed me down and reeked havoc on me. I need to rededicate myself and get back to the real reason why I run, to try and boston qualify. I will heal up and get back to it.

See you out on the road.

See you tomorrow.

Highline canal route, a little uphill and then a little downhill, I flet okay on the uphill but then on the downhill I had some pain where I've been having it as of late from the bottom of my butt muscles and then halfway down my legs. So it must have something to do with going downhill because I didn't feel it on the uphill or when I'm running on the flat. Although I did feel it after the downhill on the flat so it must get weak in that area. I don't know why. My average pace was 8:55 with a total time of 29:12, I finished up with some upper body weight training.

See you tomorrow.

Salem Days 5K route started at my house, I was faster on the uphill than I was on the downhill which was kinda weird but a pleasant surprise. My average pace was 8:37 with a total time of 27:18, I finished up with lower body leg presses. Good postive run.

See you tomorrow.
