Easy Run

Did an easy 1.2 miles this morning. Worked a few short springs in but my legs were sore and between the minimalist/ barefoot work and road march my feet are pretty beat up so that was all for today.

Speed Ruck

Did 2.5 miles with my HPG kit bag and ruck. The split was 18:30 up and the total time was 36:53. Factoring in a 30 second bathroom/ tree break it was about even. Intensity was good. The time does not tell the whole tale because the first half is solidly uphill.

It was good and my feet while a bit sore from yesterday were solid.

Running Progression, PT junk and an easy lift

Today was a pretty decent workout day though sort of unusual. Working on getting into running more with the new minimalist shoes and strait up barefoot. Did 1.5 miles of a jog a bit then walk a bit in the new shoes. They seem to work well for me. I'm pretty used to walking in not particularly supportive shoes (crocks or flip flops forever and as of late Keens) so it doesn't seem to be going too bad.

Did an easy lift, squats and press. Lifting has been really unfocused lately. My primary goals are to improve endurance and sleep plus loose a few more pounds so weights are kind of on the back burner anyway. Going to be realistic about that and have the focus on weights be to maintain what I've got. Think lifting 2x a week with that goal is something I can stick to for the next couple months or so.

4x20 pushups and situps. 3 easy sets of pullups.

Ran a quarter mile or so barefoot. That is going well. Took the dog today which was nice. He is pretty old (like 8.5) so these short runs are about right I think. Will add a bit more distance for next week.

Ruck March

Did 5 miles with a 55ish pound pack. An hour up (there is definitely elevation gain but I was also not in a big hurry) and a half hour back. Was not in a big hurry on the way out but I realized it was going to be longer than I had planned and it started raining pretty decently so I decided to just run. Felt great though running down did lead to a blister on my left heal. Focus was awesome. Looking forward to doing the same distance as a trail run maybe later this week.
