Brief Trail Run (4/9)

30 Min trail run with Dan on Riverlin St. Single track trails. Approx 3 miles covered

COMMENTS
  • General: I didn't do much today because my elbow was nagging me for the first time in a long time. Felt good on the trails, although post-run some of the injuries I've been going through were bothering me.
  • Nutrition: Bad. Today was my 1 year with my girlfriend and I had delicious pizza, Ben + Jerry's and a few beers
  • Body: Elbow nagging me. Foot and shin felt OK during the run but just like before after.
  • Sleep: 9 hours
  • Reflections: If my elbow continues to bother me I need to heed my own advice that I have been giving Dan with his injury and rest. It's frustrating because this is the week that I was supposed to start PRing again. On top of that I just began eating to get bigger again and it's been working well. Unfortunately I may have to put the goal on hold for few weeks while I let my elbow heal. I'll test it on Monday during my press session and if it's bad then that's the end of it. My plan if it doesn't feel good is to run with Contois and Jay pretty much 4-5 days a week until it's better. Not exactly in the mood to ONLY run but I might as well work on my goal of becoming a better runner while I'm healing.
