6 miles Easy in 46:33 (7:45/mi, avg HR 154). Started off feeling tired and sore from yesterday. Once I got warmed up, I noticed I seemed to be going a bit faster than normal, so I decided to avoid watch monitoring and just run easy. Stride rate was a bit slower today too, so perhaps that allowed me to stretch out a bit more than normal. In any event, a good 15 seconds faster than my normal Easy pace while at an easy effort marked a good day. So did the sunshine, scant road ice, and calm winds. Marred only by the fact that my nemesis dog was on the loose today, so I wound up calling Animal Control once again, who advised me to take pictures.....I guess I can take pics over my shoulder as I'm getting out of dodge! Core exercises and stretching afterwards.
