Much needed day off. Shitty weather, anyway. One month to the day after resuming some semblance of a training program, I like where I'm at, I've decided.

Thursday, 3/1/2012
AM: Hike: 49:09min
Summit: 20:32 up; 28:36 down. Drove over to the trailhead with JB. She ran for a 2012 record of 38min! Had to work out a few aches but started feeling better about halfway up. Decided to come down and take a slightly longer way back to the trailhead. Decent effort, although my thoughts were wandering more than usual this morning, causing a lack of focus at times.
PM: Bike: 10min
Gym.

Hike: 49:11min
Summit: 20:17 up; 28:53 down. Same as Thursday. Felt good, I guess, but still some discomfort from massage.

To East Rock.

Hike: 47:08min

Summit: 19:15 up; 27:52 down. New PR up. Felt really good today despite feeling like shit the other six days of the week. Perhaps it was that can of salmon and self-massage with muscle rub yesterday.

Total Time: 5hr 13min
