Check out my Mixtape

Easy recovery run today with Hayden. We were going about a 7 minute pace for the whole way, and it felt pretty good even though I was freezing. Pretty excited for Footlocker, cant wait!

Holy Fetch! Who knew running could be so hard. This was the first time in a while that I have been able to run. It didn't feel to good, but at the same time I felt mighty fine. The original plan was to try to get 6 miles but my knees were hurting early on in the run, and I could feel that I was starting to get blisters on my toes. I tried to keep an easy pace the whole way with a few breaks to stretch. My average mile pace was 7:12. I ran past a house with about 3 fire engines, ambulances, and cop cars. Looked like there was a fire that they had to put out. From the looks of it, it was a pretty major which gives me reason to believe my mixtape must have been the source of the fire. Always have a bucket of water on hand when listening to that thing. Just some advice. Excited to back into the running grind. (Oh don't mind the shoe milage of 154 miles. I am adding it that way so it's more accurate)

It probably wasn't a very good idea to eat breakfast  10 minutes before I went running. I had a pretty bad side ache the whole entire time which made me run a lot slower than I wanted to. My average mile pace was 7:08. I tried to not let the side ache bother me but I couldn't help but make 3 stops to get some temporary relief. My mind seemed to stray from running to think about the awesome new Lamborghini Aventador that I'm gonna get for Christmas. My parents laughed at me when I said I wanted that for Christmas, but I know Santa is gonna pull through for me. Merry Christmas everybody. 

Yeah I did run on Christmas day. Dedication. Haha no just kidding, I ran two miles and just tried to make it short and sweet. My average mile pace was 5:57. It was cold and my legs hurt real good. Just need to get a good week of running and my legs will get use to it. I am gonna go party. Merry Christmas Fam!

It was freezing this morning and I wasn't very motivated to go run so I was thinking that I might go to the pool and  run, or go lift weights. It got to about 3 o'clock and it felt like it warmed up a bit. (16 degrees outside) So I went for a nice cold run. My average mile pace was 6:47. I've been trying to stay real posotive about getting back in shape. I want to throw down some sick times in indoor track this year. 

It was about 10 degrees outside. What better temperature to run in! Average mile pace was 7:15. Picked Joe up at about mile 4. He ran with us for the rest of the time. Good run.

I wanted to run about 4-5 miles today at a faster pace than I have been doing. Not tempo pace but just a bit faster than my regular jog. My average mile pace was 6:18 which should've been fine to maintain but I wasn't feeling it. I was just pretty tired and didn't have very much motivation to push harder like wanted to. I'm thinking my night sleep could have some affect on that. I was at Denny's till like 1:20 last night and didn't fall asleep till around 3. Might go the the gym later on and lift weights or hop on the treadmill.

pm: 3 decent miles on the treadmill at the sports academy. Threw in a bit of incline for a mile. Then I did some leg excercises on the machines there. My legs are gonna get so beefy. My legs didn't feel to great but that didn't stop me from getting a couple good dunks in on the court. My femur is starting to hurt and it feels like it is in the bone. I am kinda paranoid that it might be the starting of a stress fracture so I'm gonna have a close eye on that for the next couple days. 

No running today because of my femur that was hurting yesterday. I didn't do anything, but it feels fine today, even when I press on it, so I think I'm gonna be fine. Good night with some buddies at Crystal Hotsprings. Felt real nice to soak my legs in that water. I will give running a try tomorrow and see how it feels.

It was freezing outside this afternoon so I decided I would just go to the Sports Academy and run on the treadmills there. When I go there a lot of people were walking out, only finding out they closed at 3 for New Years. So That ment my run would be outside in the freezing cold. Got home and it was about 7 degrees. Started running at an easy pace. Finished my first mile in 7:11, and as I warmed up my mile times seemed to get progressively faster. I finished my 4th mile in 6:15. My average mile pace was 6:47. So it was an okay run. Just really hard to warm up. My femur felt good too so that's a good thing. Gonna go to Ethan Field's house tonight for New Years to relax and have a good time. No crazy parties this year.
