AM: 30:00 jog around the neighborhood. Felt a little awkward out there this morning. By the time things felt right it was time to wrap it up. Found myself wondering how long I'm willing to go before I start to notice improvements.
PM: 55:00 stair climbing. Stark contrast to this morning in terms of energy. I ate two PBJ's for lunch. Clearly I'm lacking peanut butter in my diet.

Hungover
But I didn't drink last night.
It wasn't hard to justify bagging the ride I had planned this morning given the rain, my tired legs, and a boatload of school work I should be working on.
Had to be at a meeting in W Philly this evening, so I swung by the gym beforehand. 30:00 core session and 30:00 very easy on the stair climber. Boy am I tired.
There's a dull aching in my left foot as I write this, so I'll have to watch it lest I end up back at square one. Of course, feeling mentally and physically exhausted alters my perception of these matters, so I'm taking this a day at a time. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Overslept
By choice. Didn't feel like making the westward commute in the chilly drizzle, so I went back to bed. No class on Fridays and it makes it a bit easier to justify.
AM: 60:00 running underwater with three sets of 5x(2:30 hard, :30 easy).
PM: 50:00 easy on the stair climber. Possibly useless information: HR skyrockets when I push off my heels as opposed to my toes. Some slightly neurotic discomfort in the left foot. Phantom pains?

Early Morning
AM: 50:00 fairly easy on the stairclimber. Could've ascended the Comcast Tower three times over.
PM: 50:00 elliptical. Forgot my water bottle at work but I was OK without it. Tired. No hot water in the locker rooms. Definitely awake now.

Plugging Away
AM: 25:00 jog around the neighborhood with 10:00 walking warmup and cooldown. Almost felt normal out there today. Didn't eat enough for dinner last night and I had to wait til after I digested my b'fast to head out.
PM: 50:00 pool run including 2 sets of 6x(2:30 hard, :30 easy). Perhaps one of the silliest exercises in which one can engage, but it's surprisingly a refreshing workout. Left me feeling energized but slightly chilly for the bike ride home.
