6 Miles - 48:25 - 8:04 Pace
Ran in the Four Points Sheridon in Ann Arbor fitness room today, which was connected to the pool area, making the fitness room the hottest spot in the building, so I got a good sweat in. Only 6 miles, I was having a hard time breathing with all the humidity. It did feel good though, I think the heat and humidity helped my hammy.
8 Miles - 64:40 - 8:05 Pace
First run with my heal lift from the PT, I have one leg a little shorter than the other due to all the ankle sprains I suffered playing basketball. So that is causing a lot of the strain on my hammy. Felt a little weird, but got used to it. We'll see.

I got the last treadmill in the joint today, way in the corner. Good run, legs felt good lungs felt good.

Missed running on Sunday, so I am making up for it today, which isn't a big deal because I don't have any long or tempo runs this week, so running a few days in a row won't hurt me. Felt good, the hammy was ok, this little pain in my knee was there for a bit, it's the same one that hurts when I twist it funny while walking or standing. Feels like I am pinching a nerve.

This one was painful today, not injury painful, just a hard one too complete, which makes me a little nervous. I think I should be breezing through these, and running farther in the tempos than I am.....but I guess that is why I am training, to get better. I know that weekends are my worst days for running, which is why I moved the long runs to Tuesday, but it is hurting my Tempo runs. I guess I could run long and Monday, and run Tempos on Friday's..........well, if I was ever to travel anywhere for work, that would screw up the Monday night run, and if I traveled for personal, that would screw up the Friday night run......so much for that idea.

Was supposed to get in 20 today, just couldn't get there on the treadmill though. This is the longest I have run on the treadmill, and I am still on pace with my training, I just like to be a little ahead at all times. Nothing felt bad, I just was done, actually I thought I was done around 11 miles.
Off to the Physical Therapist tomorrow.

Supposed to run 20 miles today but my legs were really tired for some reason, so I only ran 8. I will do 20 on Thursday to make up for it. Not sure what the tired legs were all about, might be from the Tempo run on Saturday, might be that I haven't eaten enough since the Tempo runs, who knows, Thursday will be a better day.
7 Miles - 56:54 - 8:10
Easy run today, was watching a few good movies, Blue Streak, and Notting Hill, made the time go quickly. Lets felt good, hammy a little sore, I'll be seeing the doctor tomorrow for that. Hopping it is going to warm up enough Tuesday for me to run outside for my 20....but I'm not holding my breath.

Supposed to run 7 total miles today, but after the Tempo portion, I didn't have anything left. The good news is, my hammy didn't bother me, I still have an appointment on Monday, but good to know. My lungs we a little challenged today, I think I was out too late last night and had a few too many, but I got the important miles in, so that's what counts.
6 Miles - 49:42 - 8:12 Pace
I was a little sore when I started running today, even after 5 games of warm-up ping pong. I could just feel it in my joints, partially from the road, partially from the 18 miles at a fast pace. I started feeling better mile 3 though, and by the end, I felt pretty good.
18 Miles - 2:25:05 - 8:03 Pace
It was 60 degrees today! So, I decided to run outside. The sidewalks weren't too bad, a few unavoidable puddle, I did get splashed a few times by cars passing by. All in all a good run, the hills were something I hadn't tackled in a while, so the up hills hurt my muscles, and the downhills hurt my joints. I did run it at a fast pace though, I was happy with that.
The big thing that has got me worried is my hamstring. I thought with all the stretching I have been doing, I had taken care of it. But today, it owned the last 3 miles on the run. Not sure if it was the hills, or the intensity, but this is the worst it has felt since the marathon attempt......I think I need to go and see someone.

Tami and I ran outdoors today in TC, it was beautiful out, the sun was shining, it was around 35 degrees, felt good to get back on the pavement. We were at about a 8:39 pace through 3.5 miles, then Tami stopped off to use the restroom and told me to press on, so I picked it up a little, and finished with an 8:05 pace, so I was cruising at about 7:35 for the last 2.5 miles. Felt good, a little slippery, but it was nice to be outdoors.

First speed workout of the year today, on a new treadmill up in Traverse City. It actually was a pretty good run, it hurt, but it was good. The speeds on this treadmill seemed to be pretty close to the ones I am used to being on. I am a little sore after that one, just muscle sore, haven't run that fast in ages.
16 Miles - 2:12:14 - 8:20 Pace
Great run today, real pick me up after the terrible run I had in NC. Felt good, I was a little sore from running up the incline on the NC treadmill, but I made it through, this is the longest I have run on the treadmill, so I was feeling good about that. First speed workout in ages is up next, I will be in Traverse City, so we will see how this goes
3.5 Miles - 28:41 - 8:21
Not a good day, in fact, it was a pitiful day. I got onto this treadmill in North Carolina, which was stuck at a 4 degree incline, and the speeds kept varying, and the buttons didn't work, and it was about 85 degrees in the room, and it was facing a wall......bottom line, I got 3.5 out of the 16 miles.......yuck.
7 Miles - 57:44 - 8:15 Pace
Easy run today, didn't feel any effects from my first Tempo run yesterday....next up, 16 Miles, the longest I have ever run on a treadmill, and I will be doing it in a different state, on a treadmill I have never been on.
