Ran in the Boise foothills with JF. At one point we ran hard uphill for ~0.1 mile, stopped to do single leg squats, ran out 0.25 miles and then ran another hard 0.25 mile followed by one-leg squats. By the end we had done 88 squats /leg.

Walked on the treadmill on a 4% grade while studying pharm. Followed up with ~30 strokes on our oldie rowing machine. Gluts are super sore from the one leg squats yesterday!

Ran 3 miles on the treadmill at speed 6.0. This run got really boring so I decided that in the future I'll definitely have to include some variation to keep it interesting. Walked 0.5 miles for both warm-up and cool down.

Got sick last week and didn't run to try to prevent from stringing the illness out. Finally felt ok to walk on the treadmill (4% gradient) while studying for the pharm exam.

First time trying to run after my cold. I ran around the area during lunch with a classmate and it was pretty enjoyable.

Ran on the treadmill at home. I need to work on increasing my endurance since I have been slacking on running for the last few weeks.

Ran 3.5 miles and walked 0.25 as a warm up and cool down. I worked 7-3 at the homeless stand down and was glad I got to participate to help a few folks out by giving flu shots before the winter hits.

Rode the greenbelt out to Lucky Peak Reservoir with Arby. The ride was 33 miles and my butt is really sore from the bike seat.

Did a 5 point interval today where I ran/walked 0.25 miles at speeds 3.0/5.5/6.0/6.5/7.0 with a 0.25 mile cool down. I felt like I needed to incorporate the 3.0 walking interval between every mile or I wouldn't have been able to go as far. My endurance has really dropped off since school started, and I've also been at war with all the illnesses that are being passed around the classroom. I finally kicked that nagging cold-thing that I had, but I am still struggling with congestion. I did want to go further than 3 miles though because I'm hoping to work my way back up to around 20 miles per week-even if it includes walking.

Ran during lunch with MW. The run was invigorating, but surprisingly hard since MW was pushing me harder than normal. I'll need to take it easy tomorrow to avoid knee problems.

Ran the short loop after the 602 exam. Felt good to get out and get the blood running.

ran the long loop with MW. There was a pretty stiff wind that made it difficult, but felt good afterward.
