Not as easy as I'd like it to have been.  Not sure why I have such trouble holding back sometimes...today my legs just seemed to want to GO, despite my hammies being a bit sore from the past couple of days.  Hope this was easy enough to be ready for my hard workout tomorrow.

Let's face it you are just built for speed. Maybe you should consider getting you a red shirt with yellow lightning bolt on it for race day.

I like to keep any 2nd runs very easy but sometimes I just want to run fast. I go with the flow and enjoy the moment. Sometimes this leads to a poor workout the next day, sometimes not. I wonder if it would be better to switch the workouts round on such occasions. The worst thing I've done is hammer an evening session before a race the next morning. I've only done that the once.
