Overall not a great session. Poor nutrition on Sunday and Monday caught up with me. Note to self that mass quantities of milk affect my running in a negative way. I was under hydrated today as well and just did not have a lot of energy. Some of this way be lingering affects from Saturdays 16 mile run.

Good workout today. Legs are fine after the 16 mile run Saturday. I am planning on doing a medium distance run tomorrow and Thursday then an 18 mile run on the weekend. Legs and hips felt strong which I was very pleased with. The hinge movements in the warm up have been paying off and I believe have helped aid in recovery by loosening up my hips and hamstrings.
