Ran 3200m at 11:45. Felt surprisingly good today. Followed up with a strengthening and lifting session. My cardio is still lacking from the time I spent without being able to run, but I can feel that it's cleaning up a bit.

No running today, just a very lengthy strengthening session.

Today was my first day off the track. I ran 2 miles around the block with Chris and Mark. We were going at a pretty fast pace, and I felt my breathing working, but it was absolutely no problem for my legs, which I probably owe to the strengthening. I did a 10 mile bike ride around 2 PM. I finished off the day with a swim. Today was the first time I did long distance for a swim workout and it was pretty taxing. I didn't do strengthening as I was occupied for most of the day.

Another day of 2 miles around the block. I ran with Will and we were going pretty fast. I should probably start wearing my GPS watch so I know my pace. Ankle feels pretty good. I'll try to do 4x3mile runs next week. I guess the plan is to do 4x3mile then 5x3mile. Then I'll move up my mileage per run and do 6 runs a week once I hit 5x5mile. Finished up the day with some swimming (mainly kicking because my shoulders flipped out on me) and some strengthening.

Today was a rest day so I just did a swim workout and a strengthening session. This will be my first week above ten miles. I'm encouraged by the fact that I haven't run into any significant problems yet.

Ran 3 miles with Matthew. I finished the day with swimming and strengthening. Swimming felt a little odd and I got some hamstring pain but no ankle pain at all.

Today was a rest day. I got in the pool to swim but my hamstring gave pain immediately. I cut my swim off and just did strengthening.

Just ran an easy 3 miles to crossroads park and back. I was cruising today but it felt difficult. Had a fairly extensive strengthening session today.

No running today, just strengthening and lifting. I will run twice in a row over the next two days.

Ran an easy 3 with Will and Chris. The pace was barely below 7 but I felt a little off. I'm beginning to feel like my cardio isn't actually behind and that the bad feeling in runs is just part of my continuing struggle with morning runs, which I abhor. I seriously wish our team had practice in the evening but I guess I'll just have to wait until the Fall.

Any issue I have had with morning runs really did not present itself today. I was planning on using the bathroom at the halfway mark but I felt too good and didn't want to disrupt a wonderful run for the sake of my bladder. Finished the day with some strengthening. I'm beginning to like the new route I'm taking to Crossroads park because there are very few obstacles to good training on there. However, I'm also excited to move on to higher mileage and throw a few tempos back in the mix. Finished up the day with my strengthening routine. Hopefully more runs like this to come.

Crushed a 4-Miler today. Faster and longer than Saturday but it did feel more difficult. It probably didn't help that I forgot to eat breakfast in my morning stupor before practice. I was unaware of this until my stomach aggressively reminded me on the way there. Unfortunately I've been waking up too close to practice since it was moved earlier to get my bike out but I'll try to do it tomorrow.

I fell behind on my posting, so I just updated my mileage for the past week to catch up. I feel fairly in shape. 5 miles with Chris and Carter this morning. Chris is noticeably a lot faster than he's ever been.

5 miles with Matthew at Robinswood. I'll be at camp for the next week so I won't post for a bit. I'll try to update as soon as I can when I get back.
