 Started out with 1.25 hrs of shoulders, triceps, and core.

 

Aimed for 45 min of easy running.  The hip flexor still bothers me. :-(

 

9:21, 8:52, 8:41, 8:32, 8:01, 7:46

Wow, I hadn't look at the splits till just  now.  Not bad!

Did a good leg routine, but decided against meeting Coach Bob at the track because of my hip flexor

I haven't been running because my hip flexor is still saying no.  :-(  

 

Did a good back/bicep workout today, though.
