Lunch run - wasatch out and back at 7:51 pace. 15 minutes of warm and cool on the stationary bike (8/7). The snow was cleared and it's warm enough that the roads were wet but not icy.

I obviously can't be certain and I need to run this week to gather more information but my sense is I am healing up nicely. The high hamstring tendonosis won't just go away but I can manage that and the rest is really coming around.

I had a few occasions to run last week but ultimately missed them all and had a full seven days with no running. While getting heavier and lazier, I had the suspicion that everything was finally in alignment and ready to heal up. Plan is 40 miles this week (through Sunday) and then a visit to Blackham. Hopefully I am restriction free at that point and I can stick to a solid maintenance plan.

Memory Grove from home. Feeling pretty good. I did a quicker downhill mile with shorter strides and it felt ok. 40:00 exactly.

Happy New Year! Glad to see the site back up. I ran in the heat of the day around down town, which was pretty deserted. Sucking in that increasingly bad air. New treadmill coming to the office but not here yet as of Friday am.

Treadmill at the Grand America in 40 minutes. Kept it easy but decided to go up to 12 momentarily to test and there was no aggravation. So that's certainly good. Air here sucks. Treadmill again tomorrow.

I did 135 treadmill miles in 2014 with the last session on July 21. It has not been missed, but January (inversion) and July (heat) are the months for it.
