13.3 miles all alone again. :( I really need to find some friends but I had to get up way early to get this run in since I had babysitting duties starting at 7:30. Started the run at my house and ran 6 miles to Payson canyon. 2.5 miles up and then back down. First 60 minutes easy, 30 minutes hard, and then of course a cool down mile. I have to have a cooldown mile. Overall pace was 7:29.
I pulled my right groin muscle on Thursday doing speedwork I believe. Either that or I pulled it wrestling around with my nephew Thurs night. I noticed it while running easy yesterday but it wasn't too bad. Much more noticable today. I am no stranger to pulled muscles as I always had a pulled groin or hamstring dancing for 10 years. It does not hurt when I run easy but as soon as I lengthen my stride and start going faster it is really painful. I think I will skip speedwork next week and hope it heals up quickly.
PM: 2 miles easy |
