10 easy. + 4 x 100 meter strides at the track. Nice day. Beginning to do more neuromuscular work now that my Achilles and legs are stronger-strides, drills, hill sprints to prepare my legs for faster running this summer. Easter today but I didn't go anywhere due to work days Fri and mon where I could not take vacation.

Wow this run commute saves a lot of time.  However, it's very hilly. I wish I could keep a dresser stocked with clothes at work, but I don't think the boss wil go for that. Bought a par of the 890v4 and am eager for a run in those!  I have plenty of miles to go on my current v3. pair and I'm getting my Fastwitches out of the closet for faster days.

13 very hilly miles.  I decided to go after the hills on my long run.  Everytime I run this route it really kills my legs but I believe that I've been so much stronger lately due to these hills. My achilles feels great.  I believe this hill work will strengthen my legs and connective tissues enough to support some really fast running this summer.  First week at 70!!
