Note
Eurgh. I guess this weekend was a little too high intensity after all. I don't feel awful, but mildly foggy head and no inclination to exercise whatsoever. Hopefully a good night's sleep will fix me.

Running 32:00 5.77 km (5:33 / km) +47m 5:20 / km
ahr:161 max:180 shoes: Integrators 5000
3 sprints at Bethel Schools. My worst navigation of the day was getting to the complex, as 302 was closed (did the Obamas visit Danbury today too?) and I had to drive in ever decreasing circles to find the start. Ran hard but not all out sprint hard, and aside from one dodgy description that I had to take a guess on (right guess) navigation was good once I remembered what scale was.
Then had lunch at the delightful Hidden Valley Eatery in Washington (George, Charlie, definitely worth a trip), then climbed Mount Tom (the CT version), then came home and yanked most things out of the garden. Busy day yet relaxing.

KBS and box jumps. I picked a high box and it was hard. Glad to have got out of bed this morning.
Running 43:44 5.67 km (7:43 / km) +170m 6:43 / km
ahr:152 max:177 shoes: X Talon 212s
Then drove up to the north end of West Rock to go for a run. It was a bit soggy but the foliage is spectacular - going to try and force Rob out there this afternoon with a camera. Really really enjoyed being out, but had the wrong footwear for the slippy rocks at the start, so was very over cautious.

Ran into work, and it was my fastest 5km since I bought my watch in February. I was carrying a light rucksac and it felt good - not easy but definitely not lung busting either. It was only 5 minutes kms but still - the signs are encouraging.

Late run after teaching Section. The rest of the semester is going to be much better now I have actually met my students. We should have done this Section two weeks ago though. The run felt great, plenty of oomph in the legs. Shoulders are sore from yesterday's cross fit though.

Eurgh sore. Felt like running in slow motion this morning.
Today the TA situation got so ridiculous that I decided just to laugh about everything and not care anymore.
