AM - I had planned to do a 5k race this morning (literally 8 local races to choose from) but went to bed with GI issues that were there when I awoke and my legs were feeling some strain from yesterday's impromptu fast pace run - so I went back to bed; got up late made waffles and late morning went on a nice run with Riley and with Finn.

AM - just about 4 miles with Finn this morning. Ran into Dan with his dog in White Columns and ran with him a bit.

PM - lunchtime - had just enough time for a short-ish tempo effort of 4 miles at what used to be my goal marathon pace of 6:50 per mile on the treadmill.

PM - lunchtime treadmill workout: 8 x 400 @ "fast as I can go and still finish the workout" effort with a 400 rest/jog. Ended up at a pace of about 5:20 per mile on the last few after starting out just under 6 min pace. Find that I can tolerate much of anything for 80 to 90 seconds. HR doesn't have time to build much past lactate threshold in that short of a period even at that pace. Pleased with the workout. Sort of feeling as though my leg speed/strength is making good progress in its return.
