LM warmup (10 reps), 6 miles in 47:42, 7:57/mi, HR 153 & stretching. Downright toasty (79F). After 2 days off to recovery from the 50M on saturday, today was the first day back. The quad soreness is pretty much gone and the calves aren't so tight (or sore) anymore, so I was feeling ready. The first couple of miles were slow....close to 9 & 8.5 minute miles....but things started feeling better towards the end and wound up averaging under 8. First 2 miles were on some soft twisty trails I discovered in a nearby park, but the rest were on the nasty asphalt and concrete. Not the hotel I normally stay at, so running routes pickings are very slim.
