Training Week: July 6 - 12

Watching Kilian Jornet crushing the Hardrock 100 course.

Sunday: .

• AM Core/Strength: Floor workout at home focusing on core/hip stability.
• AM Run: 6.47 Mi - 2,700' - 1:30 - Hills: After taking 8 days off I decided to give it a go even though I knew my groin is still not recovered. Actually not sure if taking those days off did any good at all... With just 2 months till RRR100 I figure its time I just run and really focus on the core/hip strength and flexibility and hopefully find a way to heal it while training. Speedgoat 50k is 2 weeks out and questionable at best. See how I feel at the end of this week. 
• PM Road Bike: 36.26 Mi - 1,600' - 2:20 - Easy: Went all over the east side of town, just a nice east ride to get in some time on the bike. Explored some new roads north of Valmont too. 

Monday: 

• PM Run: 5.086 Mi - 700' - 0:48 - Moderate: Skunk canyon loop... that was pretty much miserable. Legs felt like hell, feet hurt, groin was tight, and running just felt awkward. Not sure what to do.... time off or push on and hope it flushes out.
