Monday, September 8, 2008 (long run)

AM: 105 minutes on the South Field.

I paid careful attention to the hamstring, and it felt fine. Only near the very end where I started to get below 6:00 pace did I feel that any faster might be troublesome. So I simply didn't go faster.

I felt pretty strong on this, even at the end of the run with 1:40 of running already behind me. Waking up briefly at 4am and eating a Clif Bar might have helped, along with the enormous pasta-and-bread feast with Kangway late last night.

PM: About 20 minutes of easy running, warming up with the team before plyos. I skipped the plyos in favor of a solid core workout.
