Weird weathered morning, I didn't know how to dress. The fact that the temperature is dropping while I'm running doesn't help. I hit the Lundstrom Park trail in the dark, then met up with Tom and did 5 slow miles with him. Pretty easy day overall. Haha Tom was complaining about how dark and cold it was. 6:50 average, things felt pretty good.

Not sure where the entry for this run went... but I don't want to type it all out again. Ran semi hard, 6:38ish average. Lots of introspection

My legs felt a bit sluggish this morning. 6:48 average. I just couldn't really get the stride to open up, but that's okay. I wasn't looking for anything crazy today

Really windy this morning, which wouldn't be that big of deal, but my legs didn't really have the energy to fight against it. I felt like my legs needed some Green Canyon loving to get them feeling back to normal, so I ran up past the cave aways from 16th, so like 2 miles of uphill. That seemed to give my legs what they needed, and then I felt great on all the downhill back. 6:53 average.

Probably overall ran harder than I should have this morning. Started 30 minutes later so that I could get my full 7 hours of sleep, plus I have time to do that on Fridays. The outside of my left calf was sore today, especially on the uphills, probably from yesterdays climb. I need to roll them really well later today. My breathing felt kind of hard too, especially the first couple of miles, I had a string of 3 6:30s in the middle of my run today, and I just let it happen because it didn't feel out of control. The gradual uphills in the end really got me though. 6:42 average. 

Random side note: the fact that I'm going to be standing for hours at the game tonight is not going to help what I want to do tomorrow morning in Mantua for my long run.

Last nights football was crazy and didn't leave me as rested as I could have been for this run, but it ended up being a really good run anyways and it was well worth it. The progression concept didn't go exactly how I had envisioned in my head, so I ended up making some adjustments on the fly. The first 8 miles or so were around 6:40-45, and then when I started picking it up, it wasn't as gradual as intended. I went like 6:23 6:13 6:06 6:10 6:01 5:57 5:46. I had planned another mile of hard running, but since the whole run had been faster than planned and I was starting to feel the wheels go, I did the last three miles as a cool down between 6:35 and 6:40 pace. 6:27 average. The lower legs were still sore like yesterday, but otherwise things felt really good.
