Notes
Went to the Rec center after work and ran indoors because it is very cold, windy and damp outside - 44 degrees, 20+ mph winds. Nasty! Started off with a warm-up mile, have not run a 1600 for a while and felt like I could not do it. First 800 felt decent and easy enough at 3:06, so I decided to push a little bit for the second half, didn't hurt too bad, sprinted it home and was very happy with the time. This was relatively easy and smooth, relaxed, even though my hams are still a bit sore; they didn't slow me down in this mile run, oddly. I wonder if all the rain we've had over the past 3 nights has cleaned up the air so much that I can now breathe easily and run better? I got sun-burned yesterday too, since yesterday morning was gorgeous and sunny. Don't know if that makes running any better though.
