Chasing PR's with the dedication of a monk; and appreciating every moment pursuing a DREAM while trying to stay injury-free, but at the same time, fully realizing the impracticality of it all happening the way I truly want it to.

Kingman Farm Trail Race + Ankle Injury :/
July 26th-Sunday: Rest Day :)
July 27th-Monday: Q1-10 miles-(1:16:45) in Concord on a hilly route-(600-700 ft. of elevation gain) in the AM
July 28th-Tuesday: 6 miles Easy-(48:30) in the AM
July 29th-Wednesday: Q2-9 miles-(2 E-16:12 + 2 sets of (8 x 200 R w/800-(4:05) jg between sets-1st set-(36, 40, 38, 39, 40, 39, 38, 37) + 2nd set-(37, 37, 37, 37, 38, 38, 38, 36)-4.5 total-30:53 + 2.5 E-20:08)-combined total time-(67:13) in the AM :D I started my warm up at 6:24 am and was done by 8; felt controlled while trying to feel out the pace for the first set, and then finished things off well in the second set. I also changed into my Asics Hyperspeed 6's and then did some stretching + drills + a couple strides after the warm up; back to the Hoka's for the cool down.
July 30th-Thursday: 6 miles E-(48:47) in the AM
July 31st-Friday: 6 miles E-(48:41 + 4 ST) in the AM
205 miles of running for July! :D
At least 776 more miles to go for 2015
August 1st-Saturday: Kingman Farm Trail Race-5.6 miles-(2 E-16:08 + 3.6 mi. race-26:20)-combined total-(42:28) in the AM. Not much to say about this one. I twisted my ankle real bad half a mile into the race, but decided to keep going so I ran about 3 more miles where things just got progressively worse. The pain in the last mile was really getting to me. I should have just thrown in the towel after the first mile because three days later things are still healing. I did end up hanging onto 3rd OA, but I believe that I could have given 1st place-Josh Fields a run for his money if I didn't hurt myself. I HATE not being able to run or cross train. We'll see how it is feeling tomorrow-Wednesday.
