Training in Montana

A new month! Not sure if that's good or bad. I'm not sure what to do for the next multiple months. No races of consequence exist in the region over the next 6 months. I need a plan. I think I'll work on one shortly. Probably a 4 week plan so I can have some variety. I need to get some strength training in there as my groin has been slightly sore every time I run until I get warmed up. Not sure what to call it, but when I pick up my leg to take my next step I feel a tug on the muscle that connects from the top of my leg to my groin(ish) area. Could be lower abdominals, I don't know. My right one has given me trouble for years. My left leg has given me problems since I played Ultimate frisbee with the High School kids 5 or 6 weeks ago. I need to cross train.

Ran some miles today at lunch. On the way back after doing 3.5 I passed by the High School track and decided to see if I could run a sub 6 mile. My first lap was off by a ways, at 1:35 and then I foolishly hit the Stop/Start button when I thought I hit the lap button. My 2nd lap was much better, but I'll never know what it is. After realizing my goof at the end of lap 2 I gave up. Good idea too, as this is too soon for me to be pushing it at that pace. I need to get back into that though. I want to see what I can do on the track. 

5 beautiful miles in Bellevue, WA. Here for a one day conference. Gorgeous soft trail most of the way. Ran to the LDS temple on accident. A nice whim of fortune.

Ran a nice short Saturday run this afternoon. Would have liked to do 10 but ran out of time. Got lots of things done at home today which was really nice.
