Notes
8 miles easy with 6x30s pick ups
The route I ran today is fairly hilly. Between miles 2-3, I go up 17th Ave. 17th Ave has been a mental nemesis for me because of the Country Music race and so I try to run it every once and awhile so I am not daunted by it. It's actually gotten manageable for me.
Anyway-it took awhile for me to not feel flat today. My ankle was still sore today but it was more of a dull feeling which makes me think it's getting better. My right knee felt a bit tight too. Need to spend some quality time with my foam roller tonight.
It took about 5 miles for me to fully loosen up and start feeling the effects of the pick ups. I did 1 pick up in the last 6 miles. I gave myself the first 2 miles without pick ups to just wake up a bit. Felt really good by the end of the run.
