Comments:
Crazy intense week. Good stuff though. Could feel the off day yesterday, itching to run. Got home got all dressed, got out, but my headlamp wouldnt turn on. Checked the batteries, they were fine... Maybe it broke something got disconnected :(. Dang that thing was high quality. I need it so bad Ill have to get a new one this weekend. Since I couldnt see shit in the dark, I opted to stick to the surface I knew well and knew was flat. Did a few laps still easy, then did 1 on, 1 off for 1 mile. Felt good to get the legs rolling a little bit, its been a while. There were some lights so it was manageable. There was one other woman running in the dark too. I didnt think it was that popular. After the mile of fartlek, came back home at a much slower pace minding my footing. I was pretty hungry the whole time, but I never cramped up.
Essentials: Stretch
Stretched in the cold room since my roomie Nick and his fiancee Bri were really getting into a heated discussion about some shit, and I wanted nothing to do with it. It wasnt that cold, but my legs still felt weak and tired. Stretched out as best as I could. Short mileage felt good with the speed though. Probs a good idea to throw those in once I have a stronger training base. I started seeing fliers for some spring races coming up. Exciting stuff.
