COMMENTS
General: The trail run was great. If every run was like todays, I would do nothing but trail run. It was relaxing and just nice to get out alone and explore new trails I've never run on by myself (hence not knowing exactly where I was). The yaktrax felt awesome. I was irritated with the miss at 125 but I can't exactly tell you why I failed. I missed it by such a close margin it was unbelievable. Hopefully I'll get it next week. The clean workout was really fun, and I PR'd by 20 having not done power cleans in a long time minus last week's metcon. I think 210-215 is possible with adequate rest in between.
Nutrition: I ate strict all day but had ice cream and some oatmeal raisin cookies for dessert. First time I've eaten junky in a while. I've ditched that side of me that gorges when I cheat though, so I'm more obliged to have small cheats once in a while like this.
Body: Felt good today. One of the cleans made my left elbow a little tender, but it hasn't hurt at all and I don't feel it anymore so I think it's OK. Perfect time to rest the elbow for 4-5 days.
Sleep: 8 hours
Reflections: All in all a good session, and now that I've finished the week strong it's game time for the race. Tomorrow I'll look to primal walk or maybe do a light tabata run session similar to how CFE recommends tapering.
