Highland Glen loop at lunchtime. The temperature was 70 degrees with a light breeze blowing. It felt great and I felt great, outside of a little stiffness. I pushed it at what has been MP for the first couple of miles and then eased off a bit on the uphill stretch as I started feeling a bit fatigued (possibly due to the cold I've been fighting). Felt better a half mile later and pushed the pace again, especially through the trees along the creek. During the run I thought about the Runner's Series and how it wasn't that long until January and the Painter's Half. I need to gradually ease back into a solid workout routine, but make sure that I stay injury-free. |
