I stole this from Tom's blog because I really like it:
Hudson tidbit: "When it's done right, the long-term training process is like an asymptote. The line that the training process moves toward but never reaches is 'perfect training'.....while it's impossible to train perfectly, it is possible to train better and better." Favorite Blogs: |

I'm not meaning to do these runs at such a casual pace, but I've been sluggish the last few days. Could be cuz I'm running in hotter temps, though not unbearable ones. Could be cuz I've not been forcing myself to eat as much fresh fruit as I usually do. Not sure, but I'll keep chugging along 'til I get some more pep in my step. |

| | 6 miles in 58 minutes. It was hotter than yesterday, and I felt a little sluggish from yesterday's run. It was a bit harder but still fun. I'm trying to get my runs more regular than I've been doing. This week is 4 x 6 miles, instead of 4 miles here, 6 miles there, etc. Then I'm going to start moving back to 5 days a week by the end of summer. I'm still taking the increases very slowly, but I plan to be back around 40 miles a week in a few months. |

| | 6.15 in 58 minutes. I was sluggish after doing 24 miles last week and running 6 yesterday and then walking a couple miles in flipflops to our car after a football game. On top of all that, it was already mid to upper 70s when I ran, so I was a little drained. Got near my starting point by 4.35 miles and forced myself to go another mile and a half. Glad I did it. |

I shouldn't have done this run. Oddly, I injured my calf in my sleep. It just cramped up and the pain woke me from a deep sleep. It was very strange, and I woke with a strained muscle. It didn't occur to me to miss my run and rest the leg until near the end of the run when I started feeling the weakness of the calf and the way it was altering my form. This was probably the beginning of an injury. :( |
