Noon run - Jeff's River/PRE loop

November 16, 2009 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 60, windy -- weird

Comments:
Didn't bike to work today because I had a gym visit -- but my patient canceled AGAIN. Stupid.

Ran at noon with Jeff. We grinded it, but it went really well. I finally FIGURED IT OUT: instead of running, I've been BOUNDING: TOO MUCH leg extension in mid/terminal extension/push-off.

Instead of doing that, I focused more on leg recovery and the forward component, almost with the image of "stepping over a mini hurdle" with every stride. The result was the same speed and propulsion but if felt EASIER AND EASIER. :)

Legs felt OK, considering the 75mi of biking over the weekend, including the tough 40 yesterday. I'd love to get over the hump with this calf soreness.

No circuits today: shoulder a little bothersome. Danny Noonan came to town, so we went out to Sam Bond's for one, then for chow at Cornucopia. N'bad, n'bad.
