  • General: Pretty much the objective today was to make my arms need a few days to recover after I benched. I couldn't 1 rep PR today for whatever reason, but still hit a new 3 rep PR so all was not lost. This week of supposed attempted 1 rep maxes pretty much sucked ass because I only hit 1 PR and it was by 5#. Not sure why because I rested over a week but I guess things like this just happen. Went for a small run on wheeler trails with a friend who wanted to get a run in and wanted some advice along the way. I PVC rolled the shit out of my legs and back which I REALLY needed.
  • Nutrition: Decent. Some milk, a PBJ and some pita bread were eaten along with clean food
  • Body: Back is still pretty sore. Calves were a little tight but nothing big.
  • Sleep: 8.5 hours
  • Reflections: I will be resting the next 2 days in order to recover for the race on Saturday. Planning to eat well but lots over the next 2 days with no dairy to help prevent problems on race day with my digestive system. I'm going into this race with the idea in my head that it could be my longest run before I attempt to run 105 miles............ I'm seriously contemplating trying to run 100 miles 10 weeks from now at the Ghost Train Rail Trail race. I still need to think it over some more.
