Mon 6/12 - PM 55 minutes easy plus 15 minutes in Walden. Somewhat pressed for time thanks to appt. with the dentist. Disgustingly hot and humid, with more to come. Left hamstring and piriformis locked up tight.
Tue 6/13 - PM 60 minutes plus 20 minutes in Walden. Slightly quicker pace than yesterday although it never felt anything close to smooth what with the left hamstring and right calf both barking. Even warmer than yesterday, although late arriving t-storms took the edge off somewhat.
Wed 6/14 - PM 45 minutes very easy. Outskirts of Area 51 with the CH. So, so tired after the past two days of being far too overextended schedule-wise. Without the company I don't think I would have gotten out the door despite the much nicer day after the past three days of 90+ temps. Dragging the left leg for the most part.
Thu 6/15 - PM 70 minutes elliptigo arc plus 20 minutes plus 15 minutes in Walden. Wanted to give the legs a break, mostly left hammie, after the past two days of feeling like garbage. Reminded of the strenuous nature of riding the arc vs. the regular elliptigo.
Fri 6/16 - PM 80 minutes incl. 6x2:30 pickups. Obnoxiously heavy rain arrived just as I was about to get ready to hit the trail, which changed the original plan to run loops in the field. In hindsight the left leg wasn't up to that kind of work anyway. Standing water everywhere on the paths. Jogged over to CCHS field and ran timed reps there, with brief 30 second recoveries. Both the left hamstring and right calf became increasingly locked up, with the slippery conditions not helping.
Sat 6/17 - AM 35 minutes very easy, mellow shakeout. Left leg stuck.
PM 50 minutes very easy, out and back along the rail bed (soon to be rail trail) to S. Acton trestle. Disgustingly humid. Leg a bit better after lots of rolling.
Sun 6/18 - PM 60 minutes elliptigo arc, 35 minutes to/from Walden, 15 minutes in Walden. Heat returned to go along with the humidity.
