Ran with the whole squad today, finally back on schedule with the team. Went DOB 8. Was great weather, kinda rainy and mid 50s. Was a good run, legs felt awesome, hopefully they feel that good for the last big workout tomorrow.

Wednesday
Training Run
8 miles in Boost4
Ran with Parshall and Ethan. Probably the most boring run I've ever done. We only talked like two times. Ran MUD medium. Legs felt a little tired from yesterday but they also felt ready to start moving fast again.

Tuesday
Workout
11 miles total (all in Boost5)
Ran the workout with Ethan. Was an off the track fartlek, did 2 sets of 8x1minute on/off with 5 minutes in between the sets. Was a good run but was also rather pollen-y today. Legs felt like they were working a little bit harder than they should have been, probably because of the low mileage weekend. Lungs didn't work too hard so that was a big plus. Did the workout on Lake Loop and did two loops around the lake. Didn't finish the workout portion until about a mile and a half from the fieldhouse so I added on a bit when we got back.

Training Run + Strides

Ran to Lake Loop with the guys that didn't race this past weekend. Just went to the lake and back. Did 4x150 strides in my Takumi's when I got back. Legs were not ready for "speed".

Sunday
Short Training Run:
6 miles in Boost4
Ran by myself in the morning. Went Asylum and then added on at the track. Had to stop a couple times to cough up some mucus and blow my nose. Effort level was fine, breathing was just hard. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Definitely felt recovered from sickness during the day. Only minor coughing still left.
R.I.P. Elliot Hinton and Dylan Ballard. Elliot Hinton was an old teammate of mine in high school. We were never that close of friends because he was older but he was one of my favorite guys on the team. He will surely be missed.

No Run.
Took off the day to try and get a complete recovery so I can be fresh on Monday.
*Adam ended up missing IC4A's by under a second*

Friday
Easy Run:
3ish miles in Boost5
Ran with Marcus and Austin at 11 am. Felt pretty shitty once again while running so I stopped at 3ish. Was coughing a ton and had a burning sensation all down my neck and into my lungs. No fever today. Also decided to take off completely tomorrow.

Thursday
Training Run:
7 miles in Boost4
Ran with Trent and Jonnny. Was trying to see how I felt before leaving for Duke to see if I would be well enough to go or not. Had felt pretty good all day but I decided to check after I ran. The run straight up sucked! Coach decided I should stay home and rest the weekend. Was a good idea because my fever spiked up again after the run. Pretty sad I didn't get to go to Duke and get IC4A's in the 5k with my boy Adam.

Wednesday
To start off, woke up this morning with a 101 fever. Took some meds and skipped class, got some mucinex from Giant because it seemed like a lot of congestion in my chest.
Workout...... Almost
4.5 miles in Boost5
Checked in with Chris before practice, said that it is "most likely allergies" but I'm pretty sure I can't get allergies from my girlfriend. He told me to go ahead and run. Coach got me to warm-up and see how I felt. I felt like I could run but I was coughing a lot. Coach decided to not have me workout and told me to go run 10-15 more minutes. Finished off and got out of there to take a nap. Felt pretty crappy the rest of the evening but no fever.

Tuesday
Training Run:
8 miles in Boost4
Had a little bit of a cough all day today. Had some bad allergies last night so I took a Benadryl but the cough was still there this morning. Felt super bad on the run today, was tired and just felt like straight up shit. Afterwards I could tell I was getting sick so I left practice quickly so I cold get some rest before night class. Took a good nap before class and woke up feeling fresh but definitely sick, thinking it is possibly a chest cold. Went to class because I thought we had two quizzes, jokes on me cause we had none and I read the dates wrong. So basically suffered through class, hopefully will feel better tomorrow.

Monday
Workout:
10 miles total
6 in Boost5
Workout was super short and pretty easy. We did 4xlane 8's, then 1000 @ 2:54, then 4xlane 8's, then finished it off with another 1000 @ 2:54. Did the lane 8's with Stu's group, was hitting average of 74 on first set and 71-72 for the second set. Workout was super easy except for that it was hot today. Temperature was about 82 degrees, warmest weather we have had thus far. Good easy workout to get ready for Duke.
