Felt terrible. 22MPH wind out of the west. Out and back, into the wind the first half. 6:39 and 6:45 for the first two miles. It felt slow but I must have overcompensated because of how it felt. Almost 20 miles for the week.

42:16 for 10K (6:43, 6:41, 6:34, 6:42, 6:40, 6:50). Tied with 11/7/2021 (6:43, 6:28, 6:41, 6:43, 6:42, 7:03) for fastest time. It’s surprising to run the exact same time.

My breathing felt a little behind early. I ran how I felt and didn’t look at my pace at all. Fastest 5K (21:02) and first 10K (42:25) since—who knows.

Beautiful day. I wanted to keep things controlled and slower the first two miles but didn’t. My calf felt pretty good but I am still trying to be careful. Between my last run and today I used a roller, which seemed to help loosen things up.

My calf felt good throughout. There is only a little tightness towards the end but nothing I was too concerned about. I iced for seven minutes in a 5 gallon bucket following the run.

Not great. I’ve taken some time off to recover from a calf injury. I got 3/4 of a mile into my run and started to feel it all again. I walked and jogged back home. More time off is needed.

My right calf balled up almost a mile into my normal 3 miler. During my last run it tightened up a bit towards the end but I didn’t think it was much of a concern. Walked home.

Kind of rough. 86 degrees at 9 pm. Got behind early. Night runs always feel faster than they are. I wanted to try something faster but it was forced.

6:39 for the first two miles. Vertigo came back last week so I wasn’t sure how good this would feel. I tried to take it down and match the last mile. Probably too quick the first two after a few days off.

Hello to anyone viewing these activities! Today’s run was hot. It was 85° when I finished. The last mile was a bit slow but I decided to add three strides and rests in the last half mile.

Ran on the cross country course at Marshalltown Community College. It was a bit earlier than I expected especially going into the last mile. Ran with some running friends from high school, a reunion for past runners.

Good but hot. I had seven or eight second positive splits for each mile. Sometime after the first half mile I started to catch up with a doe and a fawn along the trail. I started out with a 100 for a body battery, I was well rested this morning. Set ups and push-ups.

This run felt a little more difficult than Monday. It felt good to start which meant I probably started out a little too quickly. My slowest split was the last mile.
