8 recovery. 8:00 pace. Calves are destroyed. Not strained, just extremely sore. I maybe underestimated what yesterday's run would do to my legs.

Big workout. I had 2 miles uptempo + 6 x mile on the schedule, but after the first couple mile reps I realized my legs have atrophied from cross trainng and I need to bring them up to speed more gradually.  So this turned into 3200m uptempo + 4 x 1600m + 3200m uptempo.

11:44 (5:48, 5:53)

5:19, 5:22, 5:17, 5:18

11:41 (5:54, 5:46)

Aerobically I felt great. Muscles in my legs felt beat up. Weather was ~30F, foggy, and no wind. I did this on the Richland High track.
