8 miles, easy
35 degrees, sunny
I drove down to Pierce Mill and ran up RCP to meet the team on their run from The Line. The run felt rough after a long night out with our guest Justin last night.

9 miles, hard
32 degrees, sunny
I joined the guys for our annual XC workout on cell tower field. The weather and faces were different this year, but the terrain was just as tough. I had difficulty keeping up with any of the guys, and couldn't get my legs to turn over. Despite the discouraging workout, at least my leg pain dissipated. Two days off and a night at the gym doing stabilization work last night seems to have helped.

9 miles, hard
38 degrees, dark
I returned to running by hitting the track with the team, which even at the time seemed foolish. I joined the guys for as much as I could, and managed a somewhat decent ladder workout. I followed or paced Dusen and Dickson for 800-1200-1600-1200-800 of their 5xmile workout. At the end of the workout, I had some serious pain in my left shin and knee, and speculated that I had a stress reaction/fracture.
Splits:
800: 2:38
1200: 3:53
1600: 5:01
1200: 3:50 (fell off pace badly the last lap)
800: 2:30

4 miles, easy
30 degrees, sunny
I was able to sneak in a few miles before hitting the road to return to DC. The hills around home are incredibly large and steep, so I didn't make it too far.
Later on Sunday I came down with food poisoning from a Wegmans Chicken Caesar Baguette sandwich, which took me out of commission for the first half of the week.
