I felt better today than I have in a long time, even though I only had about seven hours of sleep. Mentally I was focused and physically I felt energetic and bouncy. Since my diet is so high in fiber (100g+) some days I tried cutting it down by about 20% and moving a lot of the heavier foods I eat to the evening which I think helped a lot. I set a 30m pb at 4.26s, still not blisteringly fast but better than it has been.

My knee was just as sore today as it was yesterday so I took today off except for some light stretching. It's really frustrating because I feel good overall except for that one part of my body. I'm taking today as an opportunity to ice/ ultrasound to hopefully get it back to near 100% for tomorrow. Even though it hurts to walk I don't think sprinting will hurt anymore than walking.
Today was frustrating, I felt really good energy-wise but my knee wasn't going to let me do anything... I tried to warm up but I couldn't even do strides, I don't know how long this is going to take to heal--it might be good by the weekend or it might be a whole week... It seems like there is always something wrong, I can't remember that last time I felt "good".

Today was pretty much a recovery day, my knee was pretty sore and I had trouble icing. I kind of feel like it may be better by the morning however.
My blood sugar was off all day, I'm going to try to be more diligent from now on trying to match the foods I'm eating to their effects on my body.

I felt good today but the numbers don't show it. I'm still not running anywhere close to what I was a couple of weeks ago... Even on the days like today where I feel good I'm having trouble even breaking 4.40s for a 30m...
My knee started to hurt when I tried to start depth jumps and I wasn't able to do them. I'm not quite sure what the problem is but it's quite sore at the moment, it feels like an issue with the patellar tendon. Hopefully it's not a lingering thing.

6x3x30m Acceleration (4.40s, 4.43s, 4.37s)

I felt really good today, surprisingly so. I'm hoping that the same feeling carries over tomorrow so I can hopefully get back into the 4.20's for the 30's.
