Similar run to yesterday.  8M easy in 56:21.  Ran to Dobbs Ferry and back at noon.  Weather 75 and quite humid.  Felt like I was dogging it but pace was 7:03.  7:00/mile feels so easy now. Splits 28:24/27:57.  End HR 150.

Injury report:

Left achilles:  Did not ice yesterday nor did I soak it in hot water this morning.  Wasn't very sore walking around the house yesterday or this morning.  Quite sore first mile of run, a little sore 2nd mile, just stiff after that.  Feels OK now.

Right achilles:  Pretty much fine.

Knees:  Basically fine.  Didn't bother me during run, sore walking down basement stairs afterwards.

Right quad:  Still sore but not really bothersome.  I now think I did this stretching last week sometime.

Right forefoot:  A tiny bit tender afterwards, but basically OK.
