AM - ran with a neighbor, Dan who I had a couple of runs with last year when we first moved here.   He's just way too fast for me.  My preference would have been a long slow easy run, but he and I have exchanged texts for weeks trying to coordinate a run together. Had I not done the tempo run yesterday I would have been fine - as it was, I probably ran even faster this morning than yesterday.   Needless to say, I was completed knackered afterwards.  

Will perhaps do some easy jogging later today for a few more miles of volume.  All in all, a pretty solid week of training for the first time in a while.
