Thursday - June 21st 2017 - Week #1

5.4 miles - 8:00 pace

Temperature: 77°
Weather: Sunny
Wind: 9mph

Summary:
Today Charlie Goodrich, Matt Bonner, and I ran a good 5.41 miles on the Ballard Trail in Norwich, VT. The trail run today was much more enjoyable then our Greensboro road run Tuesday. I’m hoping to do the majority of my runs in the upcoming weeks on trails to protect my knees and ankles for the harsh pounding of the road. I would also like to increase the pace on my next couple runs, 7:00 pace is ideal. We also did 4 strides on the Norwich Green after our run.

Body:
I’m feeling sore, but nothing that can’t be fixed with some ice and diclofenac.

Monday - June 18th 2018 - Week #1 3.84 miles - 8:00 pace Weather: Raining and Humid Tempature: 78° Wind: 9mph Summary: Matt Bonner, Jack Lynch, Simon Herron, Daniel Bandler, Daniel Frost, and I met at the Garipay Fields around 3:30pm. Although it was humid and rainy we set off towards the practice golf course, crossed the road, and ran through Pine Park. I originally planned to run 3 miles today to ease into training, but since some of us left our shirts near the mouth of the Pine Park trail and we planned on doing strides at Garipay we ended up running 3.84 miles instead. I think the extra mileage will only help prepare us for the mileage boost in the coming weeks. After the run we did four quick strides at Garipay and headed over to the Mini Co-op for a snack. Body: I felt surprisingly fluid for not doing any dedicated running for two weeks. Most of the outdoor track season my stride and form did not feel very smooth, but after this recent break I feel my old rythmic pace...
