Cottonwood Creek Trail in CO Springs w/Court.  Hard to breath at 6000!

Nice 3-night outing with mom and niece/nephew.  But too much on the go to run other than this; did walk around house neighborhood a few time as weather was nice in the evenings.  Warm or rainy during day.

OC with Court; fairly nice weather for August; lower temps and DP; 10 x straights; feeling better all the time and less noticeable on injury; just need to stay consistent on drills and not push things.

OC rain-whole-time run with Blake; ponding everywhere = soaked shoes and clothes.  Just kept it easy and also included some inner campus inclines.  Still way off from where want to be.  Still feeling right leg/butt problem although not as severe.  Feeling inner groin hip flexors post run.  Still getting worn down about mile 8.  Just gotta hang in there.

Immediate post-run spin of 28:00 (= 1:53 of aerobics)

NOTE: still doing core drills (but not lunges or standing squat = was wearing legs out).  Lifting but not legs...is that why front inner hip flexors hurt?  Doing all runs in adios shoes; is that a problem?  Many questions but don't have the answers on how to get back to 100%.

w/BE after rain storm; not done until 9pm; ran 8 x 1/4 decent but couldn't push due to being sore from weights on legs and also still overweight.

= too late for any core etc.

Warm to hot and muggy; over 70 DP starting out at 7:30 am; full sun; very little wind.  Really felt worn down on this run and walked little over quarter back to car.  Finally ran 5 days in a week but have a long ways to go.
