Tight Quadriceps

Monday, 8-28-2006
31'01" for 4.5 Miles in Heritage Park

Still have major quad trauma in my right outer quadricep that I will attribute to over-working the muscle with my increase in mileage and intensity this week. Is still bothering me a bit but am hoping that after this run it will loosen up with the bloodflow and easy recovery run. Stretched a couple of times, but kept the run controlled. Did feel better by the end. Iced during breakfast. Adductor is solid, just achy.

Mo, 6/6/2016 6 miles easy on the Greenway in 45:45 * avg. 7:34/mi... right adductor is seriously tight. Am going to switch days, not double today and get treatment with Jerod. Just jacked up and tight, but feeling in good shape. Got up at 5AM because thought I was going to run 9 miles, but called it at 6. Will shift around the schedule. Tu, 6/7/2016 AM: 6 miles steady on the Greenway in 44:54 * avg. 7:25/mi.. identical run to yesterday. Goal today is to double. Felt really good. Adductor was great, thanks to Jerod. No problem, some tightness/pain in my left post-tib from needling, but overall I focused on making purposeful strides and finished up quite well. Thinking of Moorcroft the whole way. This is going  to be fun. PM: 3 miles easy on the Greenway in 23:54 * avg. 7:58/mi.. felt great! Legs are healthy. Like I didn't run. Thought I was running much faster, but my stomach was full from Korean BBQ Cup!! Very promising. Very pleased.  We, 6/8/2016 Warm-up, 1500/800/3...

Some tightness in my right hip area and hammies. But glad I got through it. Good run, mission accomplished.

Light rain and was not feeling great at all. A tough run but was amazed at the final pace. ...
