20/28/20 Aerobic XC Run. Rain misses, but storms in the area. Makes for a warm, muggy morning. Tweaked a pec doing either chins or pull ups yesterday. Annoying. Restless night as ended up getting a bunch of short naps over about a four to five hour period. Still, mentally ready to do it.

Up = 20:00 minutes at 7:24 average pace with a couple of short surges. Too fast out of the gate for this workout, but will give me a chance to work on making adjustments and dealing with screw ups.

28:00 minutes XC on Districts Course plus softball field loop. Average pace = 6:49. Was running at 6:52 average pace until I got a snoot full of something along the creek. Lungs teased closing up, then went ahead and shut off. Stopped for about 60 seconds to take a hit off my inhaler. This was just past 15:00 minute mark. Back at it, and finished the last 13:00 at 6:46 average pace. Hip flexors and quads started to feel Wednesday's lift at about 20:00 minutes. Some trouble holding it together towards the end. Stepped on something hard and may have a stone bruise on my left foot.

Down = 20:00 minutes at 7:41 average pace. Only one coin this morning, but it was a quarter. That's a "win".
