sticking with the "even earlier" plan on thursdays. up at 4:30am, out the door by 4:45am, run 3 miles and back in the house getting on with the day by 5:15am. it was really warming up out there. ran in shorts. still trying to keep the nike flash jacket on when i run in the dark, but it doesn't breathe or wick. i left it mostly unzipped, but i still sweated a lot. when it gets warmer, i'll need to switch to the LED armbands I got for xmas. fairly uneventful run - but its always hard to do a 5am run the morning after sprint intervals. less than 12 hours recovery, so i still feel stiff/sore/fatigued.
workout was not so great. my lower back started to feel stiff after 2 rounds of deadlifts. same weight as the last 9 weeks straight, but this time i must have gotten slack and sloppy. i finished the deadlifts, but i didn't do the russian twists. i was afraid of aggravating it. although its my rest day on friday, I am going to hit the gym in the morning just for mobility and stretching and rolling. and I will ice during the day and take some alleve. hopefully by saturday it will ease up and i can run without feeling each step as an impact.
5/15/14. run. strength 2. back squats. deadlifts. front rack barbell lunges. toes 2 bars. coffee. almonds/peanuts. orange. coconut chicken. peas. ramen. protein shake. fried rice. salad. strawberries/honeydew melon/almond butter cookies
