My legs are pretty fried from the 10K, so I'm taking today off. Pretty sad I know but my goal this year is to stay healthy. 

See ya tomorrow.

I went out for a morning run and I ran out past the Stake Center and towards Mini GU, Legs felt okay at the start but after a few miles they really were hurting and non responsive... The last few miles were pretty brutal, especially the last mile, I felt like I was crawling. Average pace was slow at 8:58 with a total time of 36:31, I did some stretching after word, I don't know if I will run tomorrow or not I will have to see how I'm feeling, my calves were really sore and just hurt, that must be from the downhill portion of the race Saturday.

 

See ya Later

Nothing today as my legs and both my calves have some serious stiffness, I will run tomorrow but only what my legs will let me. I'm not sure why it is taking so long for them to recover from a 10K but it feels like I ran a marathon, kind of depressing actually.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran late morning today and I ran out past Mini GU via canal road, I felt a lot better today than Thursday it seems all the little pesky stiffness has subsided my pace on the way out was way to fast at 8:11 so I toned it down on the way back. With about 2 miles left I felt a knot in my right calf, I was able to run through it and it loosened up but I hope this doesn't hold me back any. My average pace 8:17 with a total time of 50:24, the weather was perfect too! Now its off to see if I can still swing a golf club, its been a good 8 months since I have played, thats the longest I've every gone in my life. I have just been to busy with other things, mainly kids and work but today worked out so I would have a chance so I'm going to take it!

See ya Monday
