A few more miles than I planned, but when April shows up in February you don't hold back. Took an early ferry over to Seattle and met Krissy and a few other folks at Discovery Park. Three laps around the outer loop in 1:56. We stopped each lap, and ran a pretty easy pace so it wasn't too taxing on the legs. I actually felt fine energy-wise, but my back was pretty sore from a.) yoga yesterday or b.) mowing the lawn yesterday. Hammys were a little tight also, not noticable during the run but definitely when I went to stretch. But a real productive run otherwise, and on another gorgeous morning in the Pacific Northwest. Who cares that the Spring Olympics are getting screwed with this weather, move 'em to Siberia next time. The back-to-back high mileage days seems like a good sign for the coming 50k, just four weeks away now. I'm planning to add more hill repeats this week and next to get some of that into my training, and hopefully a few more 2+ hour runs. But I'm feeling confident about it, and downright springy in the legs most days. 1:56
