I'm guessing 3/4 of a mile running during Boot Camp. I'm getting flabby, and I realize that a regimen of Boot Camp mixed in with running was my best recipe for a bikini body. So I'm going to start strengthening muscles other than my legs and hopefully get my mojo back. And I could use a good race to train for also.

Slowish miles on the TM while sore from Boot Camp. I decided I'm going to start hitting BC 2-3 times per week, and run the other days. Will lower my mileage even worse than it was, but I'm getting flabby and going to Boot Camp helped me a lot a few years ago. Hopefully I can get back to doing occassional doubles: running in the morning, BC at lunch.

1 mile TM warmup before boot camp, then likely more than 1 mile in additional running but it's good enough. Loooots of lower leg work, I will definitely be sore tomorrow and Friday.

4 miles this morning. No headlamp, no long sleeves, no hat. Beautiful morning, 48-50F, slight breeze. Legs so sore from boot camp, went slow.

8 miles in the morning, nice temps, no wind. Legs still felt a bit sluggish, I'm guessing from Boot Camp, but I just kept going. Fairly slow overall pace just below 9 minutes per mile. I lost my fitness pretty quickly in the past 6 months, so I need to slowly build it back up.
