Better and allot more enjoyable today

Grant joined me today ,  plan was more or less the same run as yesterday. Dropped 400 mg of IBU before heading out ,  didn't want to walk 6K today.     The company was great  before I knew it we were past the point where I started walking yesterday.   Top of right quad was achy and I felt a bit stiff but I was determined to keep plugging along and hats more or less what we did.  Walk for the first time at on a big Hill at 12.5K.  Running after the walk felt better then before.   Brought it home running and decided to walk the last K just to stretch it out a bit.  So a much better outing today logging 16.3K in 2hrs12min.  

What a day

Wanted to LSD today but the weather was so so ,   overcast ,  breezy, temps just a little above freezing.  Decided to give it a go and committed to an initial 2 hours and would re access then keep going for another hour if all was well.   First 11K were OK ,  not great ,  not bad just OK.  Right Ass was bugging me a bit ,  not painful just a dull ache.  Tired to walk it off 11-12 K but I was never able to get running after walking a K ;.  Legs felt heavy and after I ran a few hundred meters the right quad would seize up at the top of the leg.   So it just wasn't the day and I more or less walked for the last hour trying to convince myself that it was really good to practice walking ...yeah right.     So I will try it again tomorrow ,  the trepidation starts NOW . Have the Jays games PVRed so its OV,  the Couch and some Dry Roasted Peanuts  to recover,  a sweet reward for slugging it out today .  

Again but better

10K at a slightly slower 5:45 pace done this evening.  It was a real round robin of ache today.   Right Ass has ached all day ,  not hurt just a little ache.   Jumped on the treadmill and it felt pretty fluid ,  easy and with the exception of a tiny pain in my Ass all was pretty good.   Right Foot soon started to complain a bit just enough to remind me of the troubles it has been giving me.      6K in left calve complained ,  not too much but enough to make me forget about Ass and Foot.  Calve settled down and lower Back ached and Ass joined the party.  Right Foot of course was hanging in there too.   So all and all not a bad 10K ,  felt fluid and in spite of the little aches pains and what nots it really wasn't all that bad!   Bets part was being done and how I feel right now!

Longer yet

10K at a mostly 5:30 pace this evening.  An our before I ran I had a Coke a bunch of raw Veggies   3K in I had an extreme hunger come on.  I get this if I consumed allot of Sugar before I Run.   I though I was done ,  slowed it to a walk for a 1/2K then slowly ramped back up to a 5:30 pace.   Luckily the feeling passed and I was able to complete my Run.    

7@7

7K at 7pm and a 5:30 pace.  Best Run in a long time.  Today was one of those days that sucked.  I felt drained before I ran but now I feel refreshed and invigorated...SWEET!

   

Little longer, little faster

6K at a mostly 5:30 pace done this evening.  Only a slight discomfort tonight.  Still IBU free since Saturday.

No April Fool

Feeling great tonight , before ,  during and after my lunch Run.  I have been IBU free since after Saturdays LSD.  Yesterdays 8K wasn't so good but I did recover quickly and felt great a couple of hours later.  I did 4 hours of Alpine Skiing today ( http://westgreyskier.blogspot.ca/ ).  Last week when I tried to run after skiing things didn't work out so well.    So I logged a somewhat comfortable 5K at a moslty 5:45 pace this evening.    May keep it indoors tomorrow and perhaps go a little longer.
