PM: Purpose Workout. 12 X 1on/1off. The on's were 5:47AP and off's 7:55AP. Felt the hip tighten the first 3-4 but after that felt good. My left calf and achillies was tight again. Last few days it has been tight. Most likely from ramping up mileage. Overall a good fartlik session and good solo effort. Slept in this morning because I am exhausted from getting back into routine but feel really good about where I'm headed. The Good Hurt today. Very Windy during this WO so I'm happy with the AP on the surges. 7:01 OAP

Wanted to get in some good miles today.  Decided to do the Hale 10K as a MP tempo run.  I wanted to at least atempt some kind of aerobic builder.  No expectations.  First goal was to just get in the mileage and enjoy everyones company at the event.  WU with Rachelle, Jen, and few other women and then after a little bit turned around with Jen to meet Matt and Scott who wanted to do the 5k course as their wu.  Fun conversations the whole day as usual.  The race was fun.  I just went off feel.  I never once looked at my watch and did not care where I was.  I just wanted to do the best I could with where I am at.  Nagging left calf and achilles right now.  Hopefully this dissipates soon.  Most likely due to ramping up mileage.  The hills were really tough and honest.  I am in no condition to attack hills like that.  Great simulation and very happy to be running period pain free.

5up/5down 40:58 on the 10K(6:40,6:33,6:44,7:27,7:27,6:32, no clue on the .20 watch stopped.  Time is from finish line clock.)

I knew I slowed down big time on the 4th and 5th mile.  No big deal.  I don't have the stamina to do hills at all right now.  Glad I stayed with the course and didn't cut it short.  It was a good effort to get in the miles today.  Really fun to see some great faces and smiles today that has been awhile.  Look forward to next Saturday.  I believe I will enter and not bandit to try make the workout official this next week.  Again just want to be very conservative on purpose.
