It was 100 degrees and "felt like" 108 all day long, so I waited until 7:30. Still supposed to be 98 out, but with the sun starting to go down it felt relatively okay out. Leg felt good, one of my better runs yet.

Another hot day; went out at 7. Felt pretty good. When I got home I spent a couple hours assembling the bike, there's a big bike tour in Greenwood Saturday.

Summary:
I'm doing the "Bikes, Blues, and Bayous" ride on Saturday morning--a 58-mile "tour" starting and ending in Greenwood, so last night I finally pieced my bike back together. Went out today to make sure I still knew how to bike and that I had the thing assembled right. Did about 16 miles. Super hot day but it cooled off nicely during the ride, and there was a beautiful sunset. Need to tweak the alignment of the bike a little bit, but it felt incredibly natural to be back on a bike and it was good to get a session of exercise in longer than my typical 2 miles of running.

Summary:
Took the past 3 days off due to work and the intense heat wave. Luckily it cooled off before the ride this morning. My computer stopped working early on, and I wasn't paying very close attention (and apparently have a very bad sense of time), so when we hit the first rest area after 17 miles, I thought somehow we had already done 35 miles. So I was really cocky over the next couple miles and started biking in a pack faster than I could actually hang with. Eventually got dropped there, fell in with a more suitable pace line just before we actually hit the 35 mile rest stop. So I left with then but by that point I was so tired that I fell out of that pack, too. Last 15 miles or so was pretty rough. Probably would've helped if I had been on my bike at all over the past 6 weeks. Fun ride though, and I'm glad I did it.

Went out around 5:30 or 6. Sanja showed me where should used to run behind the house to get to the packed dirt roads between the fields in the backyard. Wish I had known this before. No idea how far I went, really, since I didn't have a watch and had never been back there. Felt pretty crappy after not running in a while, probably stopped 7 or 8 times. Psychologically it was worse not knowing how far I had really gone. Good core workout after.

Went back out to the fields and did the full loop out to Pollack Rd and back up Bayou. Went out a little before 7--so it was much cooler than the other night. Still stopped a couple times. Easily my longest run, nice to see I'll be able to at least complete the 5k at the end of the month and make it through alumni. Hopefully by then I can do 3 miles without stopping... Some ankle exercises afterwards, but taking the day off core work.

I think my left leg is still a little weaker than the right. Started to limp a bit and get some funny pain in it today, so I'll probably go really easy tomorrow. Did some core work and some calf lifts afterwards. Hopefully if I keep working the ankle and add in some calf lifts now it will all even out.

Summary:
Went a little shorter today on account of the leg still not feeling right. Same problem today. It feels a little better when I open up my stride a little bit, but I'm not really fit enough to keep a good pace. Did more calf raises at the end - I compared the strength between the legs, and the left leg is definitely weaker, so I can confirm that's the problem. I may either have to get some weights or join a gym--I may stop back in to PT to see if they can give some good exercises. I'll probably get out tomorrow morning on the bike instead of running tomorrow.

Ended up getting lazy yesterday and slept in instead of biking in the morning. Oh well. Went out this afternoon around 5, fairly cool (i.e. 90 degrees) after some rain this afternoon. Leg still feeling wonky so I only did 2 miles. Core work afterwards didn't feel that great either.

Summary:
Went out at 7. Hot day was cooling off well. Leg still felt a little gimpy but cardiovascularly I felt great. Just as I got out on the part headed west, a tractor with a combine on the back started driving behind me--the road is just wide enough for the combine. So I picked up the pace hoping to get to a spot where I could let it pass, but it never really gained on me. Held a pretty good pace for about a mile to make sure it didn't get me. That left me pretty exhausted when I got out to the main road, so I walked for a second. Had to stop again for a pair of dogs by the stop sign, but I got up to a good pace again over the last half-mile or so. Since I felt good and it was nice I out I decided on the full loop--also may not be able to get out tomorrow.

Got home too late again last night to get out, but I did the core routine. Went out around 6 today, since I've missed two days I decided I was okay for the full loop. About halfway through I landed wrong on my ankle--first time I've turned it at all since I restarted running. I walked for a bit and it didn't really hurt, and I was fine the rest of the way. It will probably get a bit swollen. Hot out but otherwise I felt okay.

Summary:
Woke up at 9 and headed out soon after--first time I've been out in the morning, my ankle wasn't too stiff and it seemed like that was mostly from turning it yesterday, so that's progress. I may have to get out earlier next week if I want to run at all, so hopefully it holds up. The ankle was a little more problematic today though, and was probably impeding my stride a little. Core work and push-ups after.

Yesterday I decided to grant myself a day off and enjoy sleeping in a bit. Then I looked at my calendar and realized getting out for a run today was going to require getting up even earlier. Oh well. Did the P90X ab routine last night to make up for the missed run--feel really stupid doing a video workout, but oh well. Went out at 7 this morning. It was an amazingly pleasant temperature. Leg wasn't too much of a problem.
