I had a 7:30 am meeting this morning, which meant getting up even earlier than usual, 5:10 am, to get in a decent run before going to work. I ran the U/Avenues/Memory Grove loop, but added a couple of extra miles out and back through Fort Douglas. I was basically asleep for the first seven miles. My legs felt better when I was asleep. When I woke up I noticed I still had some fatigue.

Since I'm still in race recovery mode, no workout today. I will shoot for Thursday for some spiciness.

PM:  I ran home from work, 4.2 mile version. This included a little out and back extension on the trail in Memory Grove.

Same plan with Thurs for the workout. Getting out early were you able to see any of those shooting stars Jon was talking about?

Adam--I actually did see a shooting star when I first got out the door. I missed others, probably because my eyes were half closed.

Multi tasking? A sign of true talent when one can sleep and run at the same time!
