Went up to Skyridge and did some barefoot miles. Kept the hr under 160, twas a good time. I wrote up a vague outline of a training plan for May to keep working up my mileage. I did 33mi last week, so I'll do 25 this week, then 40 next week. I'll keep alternating easy/hard weeks while building up mileage pretty quick. I'll adjust as needed based on how my body is feeling. Suggestions? Am I doing it totally wrong?

With Dallin and Riley, post-run I was down to 150.8 lbs, I think I want to maintain and not get much lighter than that bc my legs are pretty fatigued.

Now that was a good time. I started running up a road that climbs traverse pretty quick, explored a neighborhood a bit, and found trail access. I hopped on the trail and made my way over to suncrest then back past skyridge back to the house. I definitely didn't have this in mind when I started running, just kinda made it up as I went. Those are the best runs.

90% sure I have a stress reaction/fracture in my tibia after consulting the ever-reliable dr google lol. Either way it's been hurting bad for a week or two now and nothing I'm doing is fixing it soooo I'm gonna cross train for a week or two and see what happens. Super fun ride today, having a hr feature on the watch is soooooo useful to make sure I'm getting a good workout. Went 21 miles and was cruising. I borrowed a super nice bike from a neighbor and it probably ruined me for anything less expensive haha

Biked the alpine loop today. 51.2 miles. Started at my house and ended at my house. I wasn't planning on doing the whole thing until I got to the gate in AF canyon. I figured since I had gotten that far I might as well send it. Wow was that an amazing ride. It wrecked me so bad though. Idk what the rest of this weekend is gonna look like as far as workouts go but hey it was a cool thing to do
