AM - five miles before my last day of work at USU. I'm giving a 15 minute talk on octopus poison. The avg pace was 6:49 so I've kept in shape. Had the expected leg pain one receives from 7 days off running, and my stomach was totally destroyed from about three pounds of Mexican food last night in celebration of me not having a fracture/tendonitis. I stretched a lot yesterday/a bit this morning, and there was almost no foot pain. That was without pain relievers.
PM - 3 miles rec loop. I swear I always feel sluggish the first mile, okay the second, and just dandy the third mile every time. And the paces always show. This time I could barely feel my legs. The last mile I was stumbling and once I stopped I was dizzy and got the hiccups. Paces were 7:11, 6:37, 6:19, so not too shabby for dead legs. Did my core after.
