Felt crappy yesterday and not much better today. But dragged myself to the gym and got a short row and run. The left hip hurt way too much for a measly 2 miler.

Finally a run that didn't feel awful. Have taken more days off than usual this week--think I may have been fighting a bug. Cool and cloudy out, easy to run once I got started.

Was going to be 18 holes but got tired with the slow group in front and zipped back after 14. Still a lot of steps!

Ran 16 minutes gradual warmup, then 8 x 1:00 hard, 1:00 easy. Didn't push it too hard, and went 8 mph -> 8.7 - felt easier as I went along. Good to move the legs a little faster. At home on mill.

Ran a SH path run with legs dipped in concrete. Can't believe how slow and stiff I felt.

2x wimp weights, 15 minute spin bike, 10 minute row. Getting my cross-training on. Wanted to forget my upper body existed, but oh well.
