got the runs

Right around 10 miles (likely a bit more) on the C & O trail near Georgetown.  A glorious day for a run--absolutely perfect.  I felt abnormally strong and could surely have kept going, but I wanted to save some for the morning.

4 miles on the WOD.  Definitely felt heaviness in my legs from yesterday's run, but was able to pick it up in the last 1.5 miles.  Time for some Grogg.

Standard 6 mile out-and-back on the WOD.  My whole body was pissed off that i tore it from my bed and made it run, and I'm not quite sure why.  Energy levels should be higher in general, and I might have to start paying more attention to nutrition.

I've noticed that the quads are taking longer than the rest of my body to heal after runs, so I massaged them vigorously and it seemed to help quite a bit.  Should have thought of that earlier...

Had such a tough time deciding whether i wanted to do 4 or 6 miles this morning, when it dawned on me that I could do a compromise.  A good day for 5 miles.  It felt really quite nice.  I finally felt strong again and thoroughly enjoyed the run. 

am: big bowl of cereal with bananas

pm: 30 minutes lapswim, 45 minutes weights

Ran on the WOD around the park.  The best, most crisp morning we've had in a long time with no clouds in the sky and smiles on everyone's face.  A great morning to get out.  I think it helped my legs substantially to take a day off yesterday and hit the pool.  My legs felt very fresh and I was able to get into my groove right away and stick to a faster pace.   Ahhhh...friday....

A fine day for an hour at the pool and an hour at the gym.  fun fun fun.
