Stroller 3.8 7/31

Wrapped up July with a sloggingly slow stroller push. Just wanted to shake things out after last nights 400s. Hate the stroller. Heel still tender, need to ice it, but hard to find time...

11x400@R 7/30

Called for 10-12 400s. Did 11. Almost quit at 10, but 9 was fast and 10 was slow so I did 11. Found it really hard to hit 74s. I might have been able to do it in spikes, but wore trainers. My left heel is pretty sore. When I grab the achillies tendon it's pretty sore. Brother coach thinks it might be tendonitis. Hoping it's not. Need to start icing a bit, see how that works.

Condo Woods 7/29

Was going to do 400s today, but opted to push them off to tomorrow night. Try to get my legs feeling a bit better. Went for a shortish run in the woods behind the condos. Didn't stop for any mushrooms really. Saved them for later.

Marton Loop 7/28

Crap run. Felt slow. Uncoordinated as Brother Coach put it. Not sure what's going on. Mileage is slipping off my yearly mileage goal. Gotta step it up a bit. Left achilles is kind of sore. Doesn't feel like it's stretching enough. Hoping to take tomorrow a little easier than planned.

Also did a three mile family loop before the marton loop.

5x1600@T 7/24

Killer workout today. Think it was because yesterday was a decent R workout. Hope it was, because otherwise I'm really out of shape. Legs felt sore, but the pace was killer. Usually I can pop T miles at 5:50 or below and it's pretty easy. Today I was fighting to keep them where they were and the last two drifted up a bit much for my liking.

5x(200/200/400)@R 7/23

Did two today. Hit the track and did a 5x200/200/400. Felt better than when I did it last week. Not nearly as hot. Humid. Achilles a little sore, felt bruised, but not as bad as it was. Some easy stretching and keeping it easy ought to help.

WTF 3 7/22

Crap run. Spent more time picking shrooms than running... Achilles is feeling a little better, but still sore. Still mangling the form a bit. Stomping my heel a bit. Trying to rest, but stay fit. Might do a track workout tomorrow...

Marton Loop 7/21

Was going to go earlier, but went late. Too dark to see the roads so that slowed things down a bit. Achillies tight and sore so that slowed things down. Kind of pissed about not being able to get back in the swing of things. Not enough time in the day...

Weekly Plan 7/21-7/27

Turkey Trot Phase II Week I

Have to double check dates, but pretty sure this is the second week of Phase II. Should end four days early. Might do the Hannover T-Trot on Sunday before TDay. We'll see. This whole season plan is going to be a little tough as we'll be doing lots of work on the house. Last year same crap happened. Also still down to five days a week. Would love to get that extra day or two in, but I'm pretty sure it's the stroller that does my ankle in.

Mileage Goal: 40.0

Sunday - Long 10
Monday - Q1
Tuesday - Easy 6.5
Wednesday - Q2
Thursday - Off
Friday - Q3/ Easy 6.5

Edit: Achilles is tight and sore, left me heel stomping and hurting. Figured I'd take things easy. Still early; messed up the week count so...

2x1600@T 7/19

Pretty crappy run. Went out to do 5 or 6 miles, hamstrings felt really tight so I ended up just doing two then jogging a couple of barefoot miles. Don't think I pulled anything, but felt more than just a strain so played it safe. No need to bugger things up this early on...

5x(200/200/400)@R 7/17

First workout in sometime. Felt pretty good muscle wise, but the heat was pretty killer. Shouldn't have done it in the heat, but did. Felt good. Did a fair bit barefoot and not feeling ankle wonkiness - starting to think it's the damn stroller.

Jumped in the stream after the 200s of the third set. totally killed my 400 time coming back, but got on it there after. Huge blister on the heel again. Did the last two sets barefoot.

SSSB+ 7/16

Decent run today. Second day in a week... Went in Boston yesterday. Nice warm weather. Nasty mosquitoes. Lots of mushrooms, and that slows me down. Lots of stopping and picking...

Really need to start stepping things up for the Turkey Trot. Not sure, but I think this week should be the first week of Phase II. Might do a fartlek or something tomorrow, maybe a couple 1600s on the track.
