Notes

Temp 40 (WC 35) Wind 7 mph?? Gust felt stiffer.

Cardio clicking. Head into it at start, but could not drag body along. Sudden temperature change has 48-year old joints aching. Muscles refused to get loose. Jogged to track for a few laps. Head finally gave out about 25-30 minutes in. Could feel sweat starting with wind at back, then turn into it and legs immediately freeze up again. More snot flows with wind in the face. Nose started to bleed about 4 miles in (dry air??). Took a trip to the park and back to break monotony, more laps on the track, and then more climbing into the wind on way home. Mind and body whipped. Brutal and ugly, but goes into the books as 11+ miles @ sub-9 pace @ <140 Ave HR. How all that happen, I don't know. (KEH - calculatenow.biz. Had not seen this one, really like the detailed calculators.)

Worked chest, core and ankles last night. May or may not work back today. Shoulder almost back to 100% until slept on in wrong middle of last week. Stiff since, and is not improving day-to-day.
