Ran from my parents house down to the lake and then down to the school to meet them at the indoor track. After 5 mi the weather was warming up and I was inspired by the famous Jake K to do a few 100s on the outdoor track. 16 times by 100s at the Westlake HS track. I just picked it up on the straights and jogged the corners. Didn't time anything and just kind of ran off of effort. 8 mi total in about an hour. My running isn't feeling very 'sharp' lately and I've kind of been feeling a little off. I'm trying not to dwell on it too much because I'm still recovering from the stomach flu and life has just been busier lately forcing running to take a back seat in my realm of priorities. I'm hoping to refocus this week and get back on track. I'd like to work on getting more controlled quality miles in. Less medium-hard miles and more fast-true recovery miles is the plan!
