Overall analysis:

My legs were sore from yesterday's workout, but before I ran I spent about an hour stretching and rolling my legs out so my legs felt super super great. The cold made it a bit hard mentally, but around mile 3 I didn't even notice it. Lungs felt great too. Could feel a bit of aching in my shins but I think its just getting used to the runs. Cold made the muscles feel good though. My watch died halfway through the run so I didn't get the last 2 miles of my run. After the run I did 4 X 200m sprints and those really drained my legs. The last two I was really fighting to the end.

Running thoughts:

Geez it's cold, but I'm glad I didn't over dress. I had "Beer For My Horses" by Toby Keith stuck in my head so that was kinda nice to help get my thoughts off of the cold. Gonna stretch and do some more core tonight before bed.
