10 yesterday on street, 10 today on trails. Beautiful and quiet morning on those lake trails today.
Had some doubt the last 2 weeks, but thanks for this one man. Cashed out a little bit to lock some profits and ill let the rest ride into the sunset.
What treadmill do you have and how do you like it? We have a 2 year old and just found out #2 is on the way, so im looking into getting a treadmill to be able to squeeze miles in during the week.
7 at 920 pace today, 62 degrees and overcast. Enjoying these cooler runs while they last.
5 at 9min, getting toasty out there now and ice in the camel back is clutch.
Have you tried any of the Gu gels? The little applesauce pouches hit hard too. I've got an iron stomach and have eaten burritos at halfway points, but Gu gels, pop tarts and honey on toast are always my go tos for longer runs. Do you eat anything pre run?
11 on trails, right at 10 pace. Something about running trails just hits different.
Local 5k this morning, 24:13 with stroller. 2nd in age group, 1st stroller by a pretty decent margin though. Huge hill at the end was absolutely brutal on my quads but it was great passing people with the kid today.
6 @ 9:30 with the stroller today. 55 and windy was a pleasant surprise this morning.
13 @ 9:15, finally got to break out this camel back this morning. Honey suckles smelled very strong this morning, smelled like childhood.
Got out and ran 6.5 @ 9:15 after work, first mid day run since it's been in the 80s, shirt had to come off at about mile 3 lol.

I had the same thing after a trail marathon last April, I hate it for you brother. I ignored advice on here for a few months then finally listened, these guys do know something.
Try PT, they will be able to help out too.
I did:
Banded clamshells, monster walks, banded lateral walks, banded glute bridges, hip and lower body mobility/ stretching. I didn't notice any relief until I got my glutes and hamstrings stronger and stretched.
I had to quit running for about 6-8 weeks and do those routines minimum 4 times a week. My biggest advice is do not run through the pain man, I did and it dragged recovery time out and I missed a ton of fun events last year because of my hard headed-ness.
Best of luck and hope you have a quick recovery, not being able to run is the hardest part of it all.
10 more @9min this morning. It was one of those mornings where you don't want to go, and then it never gets better haha. On a side note, what race you got in July? There's a 9 and 18 mile train run in July I'm tempted to sign up for.
12 at 9min this morning. Got into Z3 and touched Z4 at the end but man it felt good out there this morning and it did not feel like a zone 2 day today.
Congrats man, how many 100s have you done now?
12 on trails @ 10 flat pace. Haven't ran trails in a little bit and forgot how great some of the hills can be.
8.5 @940ish with the stroller this morning. Had to stop a few times to let my daughter pick some flowers but we had a blast. I may try to do a half with her in the fall, she is handling the stroller better every time we go out.
1.Polaris- Crooked Path
2. Fit For An Autopsy- Black Mammoth
3.Sabrina Carpenter- Nonsense

My playlist is mostly metal, with enough pop sprinkled in to be embarrassing.
Ive been trying to build mileage and slow way down on runs instead of running at 170HR every single run, but that gets demolished the 1 stroller run we get a week. The mid run snacks are legit though.
7 with the stroller, right at 10 pace. Everything is starting to bloom and my daughter's vocabulary is exploding, so it's absolutely priceless going on runs with her now and asking her questions about the color of flowers, how many etc.
10 Z2, 55 degrees and absolutely perfect this morning. First run since whatever sickness I had last week, nice having energy back again.
