Another morning run with Mr. runmehappy.  My younger bro tagged along for 5 miles. I always bug him about taking running more seriously, he'd put me to shame if he started training regularly. He's 5'11", 140 pounds and ran an 18 minute 5k last year with me off of virtually no training.  I'm going to keep pestering him.

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.
