Run. Faster.

Ran the powerline trail (~6.6 mile out and back) in a negative split. Went out in 30:48 and back in 29:23 for a total of 60:11. 9:08 miles throughout

Iced achilles

  • General: I killed this run today. 2 days of rest left my legs very fresh and I just went out and gave it my all. I would say a 9 min mile on this course is really acceptable because of how technical it is and because of all the hills throughout it. It was great because it was raining really hard the whole time and when I realized I might hit the negative split I ran so wrecklessly that I was trudging through foot deep puddles all over the course. Shoes are a tad dirty. Really wanted sub 60 minutes but I'll get it next time.
  • Nutrition: Sexily clean although I sinned with some apple and nutella
  • Body: Re-injured the achilles today. Felt good until about mile 3 and there was no pain when I started. Won't be running for a couple days once again. Sweeeeeeeet bro.
  • Sleep: 8.5 hours
  • Reflections: Good day even with the re-injury. Maybe I'll stop being a jackass but I doubt it. I want to run long Saturday but we'll see what happens. Tomorrow I'll be squatting and doing bike intervals at my gym instead of running. No excuses. Great run.
