Running Log: February 8 - 14

Total Miles for the Week: 23

02/08/10 Ran 5 miles on the Forest Meadow loop. My legs felt pretty tired from the workout yesterday and my back being out-ish. I feel like I ran strong enogh, mostly. It was sketchy. Also, Joe Strummer is not good runnin' music. He's a punk rock fucking warlord but really bad for running.

02/09/10 Worked out at the park. It was supposed to be dips/sit-ups/push-ups/reverse crunches to 100. What a cluster fuck. I started off with 9 real, hanging from the bar dips and then proceeded to knock out 41 sit-ups. The thinking was I would try doing each set to failure until a 100 except when I got to the push-ups I knew I was in trouble. I did knock out 40 RC's and 40 dips but on the sit-ups I realized my back was wrecked and only managed two more sets of ten and I had no real push-ups left in my arms so I had to switch to dips and reverse crunches which I ned up doing to 200, give or take. Oh yeah, I hadn't fixed the iPod playlist issue yet so everything was wan and mumbly.

02/11/10 I either ran the fastest 6 miles of my life or a very strong 5. Either way, I feel better being lighter. Gotta hang on to this tiger's tail.

02/13/10 Ean 13 miles with Doug, Mirishka, Steph and Steve. I managed to stay injury free until the last mile when I stepped into a two foot deep puddle and face planted. To my created, I popped back up and kept going. Steve sidled up to me and was like, how are your legs and I was like, they're okay. And he was like, okay then pick up the pace Bud. My knees were on fire, everything was soaking wet and it was 30 degrees, eventually everything went numb. Thank god for that. It was a great run.
