RUN 5.5-5.7 miles in about 51 mins, track with LC
Even though I had PT later in the day, I managed to squeeze this one in. PT always lengthens my day, but for this one Tuesday (for awhile anyway) I wasn't zipping off to PT at 7am. So I asked LC if she was available. Thankfully she was, not sure I would have done this alone!
It was COLD, with a big wind out of the WNW. We ran the track so that the interval segment (3/4ths of the track) was into the wind, and the rest segment (1/4th of the track) was with the wind. We did 10 repeats like this, then cooled down to round out the time.
Yes, our faces froze! And LC heard a song when she got back to her car called "I Can't Feel My Face When I'm With You". I listened to a few moments, no it will most definitely not be on the songlist!
However, speaking of songlists, on the way to FP to park the 2012 CD was playing Lightning Crashes, "oh I feel it coming back again...". This was my first real "training" run in 2016 and dang it felt good. So I can feel it, that urge and drive and motivation I've been missing.
What is not coming back so fast yet is my left shoulder. Last session she popped something in my neck, the thinks that might have contributed to my improvement, but I also think my confidence is helping. That a mental block was stopping me. Either way, things are progressing all except the external pulley exercise where I pull the weights from right to left with the left arm. It just....won't move! Frustrating! But I can fix it.
Also started my gluten challenge tonight. Having thought about it so much, I'm over the worry and stress and mental planning. Just do it.
