Just run

Covered 3.4 miles but walked about .4 so I'm willing to call it 3.  Glad to be back on the board again after a crazy week of moving and driving.  I was shoving down all sorts of junk food just to keep awake on the drive.  I don't know how truckers manage to do it day after day.  Let's just say today was rough.  Knowing it was going to be rough, I didn't want to get out of bed and experience the pain of starting over again.  However, I am happy to record a small victory for getting back out on the trail.  44:19.77

Moving day.  It was so much easier moving out because I had access to an elevator.  I had to move things in up some stairs.  One flight of stairs from the street to the place.  Once inside, more stairs to put things where they needed to be.  I wonder how many stairs that was for the day.  It was probably less than I think it was.  It did feel like a good workout though.  I was completely drenched.  The heat played a role in that as well though.  Drank a lot of water.

Afterwards, celebrated the fourth by going to bed early and enjoying the fireworks in my dreams.

Motivation ran out after about two miles.  I saw a side path and got distracted and went wandering down it to see where it went.  Of course, I walked it.  Legs felt heavy so I used that as an excuse.  47:09.897 which includes my wandering time.

Sprint day.  Eight reps of 60/120s up a slight incline.  At first, I imagined myself just cruising through the workout.  After the first rep, I was certain I would have to add more reps.  However, not long after, upon completion of the third rep, I was wondering if I was going to make it.  Took a lot of will power to finish the last three reps but I made it to the end.  My legs felt tired but it was probably more mental.  I just needed a quick breather and suddenly, all was right with the world again.  Miracle.  Next time, I'll look for some flat ground to do my reps.
