Notes

Today I ran a modified version of my Ash Street loop, where I ran down Wild Road to Blueberry Lane, then up Ash and down through Main Street, right on 135, left onto Elm, then left and up home on Lumber Road. After yesterday's effort, I wanted to keep it nice and easy. I had planned on staying closer to 8:30s or so, but it seemed like no matter how much I felt like I was holding back I couldn't get slower than an 8:15. I guess if it felt easy then it was easy.

I may try to do another really easy run tomorrow, since my legs felt pretty tired today. I was probably working a little too hard early in the week with the brisk 6/4 double on Monday, 9 miles of medium/hard/easy tempos on Tuesday, and then an almost race effort 6 miles yesterday. I'll see how I feel tomorrow, but I'll probably end up doing another easy 8-10, rather than my normal "moderate effort" run.
