First run since Boston. Met Nate for a BST/Wasatch run at lunch. A bit windy and cold out there but I was so excited to get in a run. Unfortunately, my left soleus bothered me throughout. It grew in intensity from maybe a 2 to a 3.5 during the run. It didn't hurt that I recall during the marathon. Nothing to be concerned about I hope. Legs weren't as spry as I expected them to be. Recovery ongoing - all easy this week.

Lunch run around the U and Guardsman. Calf went from a 0-1 after rolling it a bunch last night. Otherwise felt good not great. Windy!

Another lunch run with Nate - this time along BST and up emigration a little way. Averaging 7:40s this week. Sill feeling no better than ok.

Boot camp with Fritz. I have no core strength and no upper body strength. I am still shaking an hour later. I would love to do something like this if it was after I put the boys to bed and closer to my home.

Everything stll hurts from boot camp so I decided on the treadmill at work in case of any discomfort. I felt surprisingly good so I think the day off did the trick! Tacked on additional .3 or so given the slow mill.

Emigration canyon run up to little mountain with Kotter. 7:00 pace up and 6:28 overall. I was struggling on the steep part going up more than usual - legs felt ok but I just wasn't feeling too spry. A tough it out kind of run.
