The History of Shaker Heights and the End of the World

February 2, 2012 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 40 Cloudy

Comments:
Veale up North Park around upper lake, South Park to Eaton to Shaker to Lee, back South Park (with Dave Dixon), Veale to Ugly Statue and back (alone), 4x100 striders with 100 jog between

I was finally feeling mostly normal today after three days since running the speedwork. My hamstring was still a little sore but it was only noticeable on the striders and not on the run. Dave and I ran a little quicker today than I have been and certainly a lot quicker than I ran on Tuesday in my somewhat disastrous run. We talked about the upcoming meet and the two things in the title. Back in Veale, I tried out my spikes for a few striders to try and get the feel right before Saturday. My hamstring was noticeably sore when I did those but fine for the rest of the run.

This was also the "meltdown" day for my stomach because I figued if Mexican food the last couple nights has been unable to cure my issues, a healthy dosage of laxatives might. This was probably part of the reason I needed to make a dash for the woods on the way back just after we crossed Lee. Aside from that, my stomach itself was feeling a lot better today and I had no nausea or cramping.
