July 29th and 30th
Spent all day on the 29th sweating to death in the equipment shed at work. I pulled everything out and put everything back in. A lot of trash and messed up equipment was disposed of.

Spent all day on the 30th in meetings and the heat finally caught up with me. I was fried mentally and opted to lay on the coach for time when I got home at 5pm.

July 30th
Slowest 5k I have ever run in 10 years...........Yes even slower than the one I ran for the first time.

I should not be too hard on myself though it was a tough trail run and I know what a trail does to a runner, especially a road runner...at one point I had to stop so that I could jump 2 feet straight down.

I guess I did not do too bad because I was the 3rd female and 1st in my age group.

Time was 28:20....with 2 ankle twists, 1 two (maybe 3) foot ditch, hundreds of roots, plenty of dirt, and one long hill of grass that was never ending. And I fit that into 3.1 miles. I promise you it felt longer than that.

I CAN'T wait until FALL and winter.

Aug. 1st

Ran 18 miles...............Well the last 6 were more like a shuffle........
I am tired.

I hope it is cooler next time I have to do a long run...

Aug. 2nd

Sometimes in training your wants get in the way of your needs. I wanted to run a race and do a long run all in the same weekend. I needed to do either one or the other or at least shorten my long run if I was going to race.

So, the result of ignoring the sensible training voice in my head has lead to injury.

I should have only run 2 hours and 50 minutes. Instead I went for mileage and ended up being on the road for 3 hours and 15 minutes.

Now I have to take a week off to let my Soleus relax. It has been a long time since I have done this and now to be honest I am pissed with myself for letting it happen.....

So, no running, jumping, or anything else that will aggravate the Soleus.

Now where did I put that bag of frozen pineapple my leg is killing me.

Aug. 3rd

2nd day back to work. 9 - 30 minute classes. Alot of hopping, jumping, side sliding, skipping, jogging..............

Good news...the soleus has begun to relax. I really wanted to work out in the basic class tonight but I opted not to. I can easily get sucked into doing more than I planned....and this is suppose to be a recovery week.

Instead I watched and completed the Basic TRX workout video.

Planning to ease into the Basic WODs for the rest of this week while subbing anything for things that will aggravate the Soleus.

Soleus okay. Still going to take it easy until all twinges of tight tendons and ligaments go away. Felt a little achy in the bottom of my foot which can come from a tight soleus pulling on the Achilles which attached to the bottom. Rolled it out with the "stick".
