Got a good night's sleep last night but oddly still felt sluggish for this morning's run.
Got treatment for back yesterday. Ultimately not sure how much good it's doing other than it feels better after the "tissue work" (i.e., focused massage) and electronic muscle stimulation. All of that seems short-lived though. It also forces me to make time for strengthening exercises.

Got a late start and didn't want to be around the high school and give the wreckless teenage drivers who were late for class a chance to hit me so I modified my route to run a double Kleinwood loop with a Shadow Valley loop added on at the end. This gave me the mileage I was looking for today.
Felt slightly less than "okay".

New territory this morning: Hyatt to Riverwalk to Lakefront Trail to Aquarium. Nice morning although I wasn't feeling particularly "bouncy" with my step.
Flight tonight ... have to remember compression socks. Failed on my flight earlier this week.

Along the Lakefront Trail in a misty, light rain. The mallards, Canadian geese and sea gulls didn't seem to mind. Neither did I.
Got passed by a pony tail on the trip back. Not that I was running that fast; just haven't been passed very often on this route in the morning.

Slow roll this morning. Just took it as it came.
Thinking about what I need to do this week:
1) Hydrate better. Be more balanced throughout the day; every day. Be especially vigilant when flying.
2) Eat cleaner and reduce portions slightly. Nothing dramatic here. Just looking for consistency.
3) Crunches and planks are my friends. Spend time with them!
4) Wear compression socks on flights.
5) Get away from "just-in-time" attitude. Work ahead of the curve - running, professionally and personally.
This is the last training week of base building. Next week will introduce speed and tempo work.
