Notes
Rough go for me at practice today. Out-and-back on the PCT (past the Bloomer trail) with Chelsea, Rachele, Dot, Danna, Olivia, Anne-Marie, and Hoka athlete Aliphine (she's in town for a race). First mile was a conservative 7:38. Hit halfway in 22:00-something.
Everything was going fine until about 4.5 miles. I fell off HARD from Olivia, Danna, Anne-Marie, and Dot. Like, over-8:00/mi pace hard. Slogger hard. This was my first run on (some) pavement and a hill, and only my second time running at practice post-injury. Those are today's blatant gains.
Ice bucketed afterward. Also ran in calf sleeves today, since those calves are still sore (but getting lots better!).
Ice: 14:00
