I did a double yesterday and a triple today. Run, run, yoga.

Wednesday

I had interrupted sleep last night and was late getting up. Fortunately, I feel pretty good.
My evening track session was a no go due to a track meet. Hill repeats with Justin was a excellent replacement.

Thursday

Evening run. Dflex, LS. 20 minutes easy. 
XT. Pull ups, dips, push ups, straight arm pull downs, squats, and core.
Volleyball. We were off our game tonight; too many service errors. We lost all 3 but each was close.

Friday

Recovery day. Massage day! My body was sore and tired this morning and in need of some deep tissue work. My left hip adductors and left shoulder / upper back were areas identified as being tight.

Saturday

Dogwood 5k. Today's race was my faster 5k since 1996. 20 years. 10th fastest 5k ever. I'm very proud of the time and PR, but most proud of of the training. It's working.

Sunday

Recovery. 1.5 mile hike with Kristen at Haw Ridge. 
Volleyball. We won but our opponent was very bad.
