• General: Squatted for the first time in my new belt today and it felt great. The 285# straight across went well. I'm really pleased with how my squats have gone these last two weeks because I've increased how deep I squat (literally ass to ankles whereas before was just below parallel) and gone straight across on my sets. If I hit above 290# next week that will be a lifetime PR. My press seems like it doesn't want to go up any higher so I may look to re-set next week if I don't hit 135# on my first set. On another note, I've noticed some bruising on my left side from my belt either being too tight or in the wrong place. Doesn't hurt but I need to watch it. HSPU work felt good. Call me crazy but I sort of liked working on it today....
• Nutrition: Day 14..... ugh
• Body: My shin is fucked. REALLY bothering me, like even just walking. But I feel pretty solid otherwise.
• Sleep: 8 hours
• Reflections: The shin thing is worrying me because I really want to run this week and I may have to rest it. I've been looking at something to train for that would happen during the summer and I might know what it's going to be. There's a 12 hour endurance run in Medfield, MA hosted by the TARC running club. It's mainly single track on a 10k course for max loops in 12 hours. My goal with that would be to exceed my 50 mile distance and basically get in a long run before my final ultra of 2011 (Stone Cat 50). I want to slaughter my 50 mile time at SC50. Here's a link to the description. Not sure if it's what I'll do but it's definitely topping the list right now. I'll have to decide within the next few days because it's a small ultra and it's already filling up.
