Overall run anaylsis:

Legs felt great. Lungs felt great. Glad to be back. I think that I will continue workouts like this for a while until I'm confident my legs are strong enough to endure more. No real pains in the shins other than some aches here are there.

Running thoughts:

I think I'm going to sign up for some half marathons this summer. Or just some races in general. That should help me to stay motivated to keep running and improving. I also need to start strectching more as well as rolling out my musscles. Tonight I'll have to set an alarm to remind me to do that before bed. Can't wait for the snow to go away so that I can safely run outside. Until then the treadmill is gonna be my best friend.

Other:

After my run I spent an hour in the gym doing a light leg day and then did 100 calf raises in the shower before heading to class. Going to do some core tonight.

Overall analysis:

My legs were sore from yesterday's workout, but before I ran I spent about an hour stretching and rolling my legs out so my legs felt super super great. The cold made it a bit hard mentally, but around mile 3 I didn't even notice it. Lungs felt great too. Could feel a bit of aching in my shins but I think its just getting used to the runs. Cold made the muscles feel good though. My watch died halfway through the run so I didn't get the last 2 miles of my run. After the run I did 4 X 200m sprints and those really drained my legs. The last two I was really fighting to the end.

Running thoughts:

Geez it's cold, but I'm glad I didn't over dress. I had "Beer For My Horses" by Toby Keith stuck in my head so that was kinda nice to help get my thoughts off of the cold. Gonna stretch and do some more core tonight before bed.
