Nice soothing, relaxing 5 miler. Ran the church, chamber, wallace, bike path route in the dark at about 8pm.
I have been reading George Sheehan lately. Tonight I followed one of his recommendations regarding perceived effort. He said to have a very relaxing run, try running at about an effort of 6 on a scale of 1-10. I did and found that I had to constantly slow myself down. I think I usually try to push an 8.5 or 9 which is kind of stressful if done every workout. This is probably all pretty basic stuff for most people, but it is a new concept for me. Pretty cool!
