COMMENTS

• General: Just didn't do as much as I thought I would today but that's alright. I would rather play it safe than pay for it later like the days after my first ultra. It was good to see a tied PR on bench but I knew I couldn't hit a new PR today. I liked the pullup idea I had today so I just went with it since this isn't any real strict training this week. Good to build volume at least.
• Nutrition: Good, strict day 2. Caffeine withdrawals weren't as bad today
• Body: Feeling a lot better but my foot is still really hurting. Walking around at work for 3 hours made matters worse.
• Sleep: 9 hours
• Reflections: Today will be similar to how things will be going once I'm 100% back to training, with the addition of running intervals or more strength work. I'm thinking the best thing I can do to hit my daunted HSPU goal is to incorporate them on 2 of the same days EVERY week so I am forced to work on them. I'm thinking Day 1 and 6 are the best candidates as of now. I need to go find a cheap pair of track shoes when I get paid Friday to use for running intervals.
