Got a horrible sleep last night. Had planned for a double today. I've felt kind of congested, maybe due to the polluted air. Opted to sleep in as late as I could today and slept even more after work. Apologies to runmehappy for canceling.
Debated skipping my second run too. Consistency has been tough in the past and I know it's key for me to improve.
Warmed up for 10 minutes on stationary bike. Opted for the treadmill, didn't run until 8 pm and did a 4 mile tempo in 22:55 at a 1.0 incline. First 3 miles at 5:45 and last one at 5:40. Cooled down for 10 minutes on stationary bike.
Right knee is pretty tight so I spent a good amount of time stretching and rolling. Feels slightly better but still needs work. I need to work on my posture and figure out some alignment issues.
Easy day tomorrow with more stretching and triggerpoint therapy. More stationary bike and a couple easy treadmill miles are on the schedule. I'm hoping some clean air replaces our sorry excuse of breathing material tomorrow.
