    Mentally, I actually feel like running for a change. Now let's see if my body wants to go along for the ride....

      Morning!  I have 10 miles.  My knee is achy so I need to do the PT exercises before the run.

        'Morning! I ran. 14 with a negative split in the cold rain. Glad that's done. Need coffee now.

            I ran 6. It was a pretty decent jog.

             

            I'm heading to Jimmy John's Field for a minor league baseball game. There's a pregame BBQ that I'm invited to which might prove interesting....

              I slogged through 5 recovery miles. My legs started feeling good the last mile, go figure.

                That's why they're called recovery miles!

                  Could not sleep for shit last night. Up several times, at 3:30 I was just up. Had breakfast & coffee, watched sports highlights, watched Meet the Press. Then took about a 90 min nap till 9:15. Then went out and ran. By which point it was already low 70s with DP >60. Thankfully only 4 miles. Tomorrow's gonna suck. Could be worse - next weekend would have been a marathon, if I had decided to go for one last shot at BQ for 2018.

                   

                  50 miles for the week.

                    30 trainer miles + 6.3 AlterG miles... I was planning on five of those but my ankles are crumbling and I have two races tomorrow and I'm worried about them, so instead I ran more.  #logic

                        Ran my 10 with a bad stomach and an achy knee.  But it was done.

                         

                        Only 35 miles for this week.  First real speedwork on Wednesday; we'll see how much better the knee really is.

                          Super stupid question here (but consider the source), but do you own one of these things?  Because they cost like a million dollars.  And it seems like they are tough to get access to one for training.

                            They don't cost a million dollars... I know this because yes, I do own one, and I've never come close to being a millionaire.  (Once my PT clinic started charging for using it, it seemed more cost-efficient to buy my own, even though it was ridiculously expensive.  I spent about the same amount of money on it as I did on my masters degree.  I've often rued the latter, but never the former.)

                                HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  No, they did not.  But I did get a tax rebate because I got a prescription for it from my osteo doc.  (And then I got audited.  But that's another story.)
