Overall anaylsis:
Legs are still pretty tight. I did some stretching and rolling this morning and that helped a lot, but I'll for sure be doing some more tonight. I could feel the tightness in my left calf as I ran, but the more I ran, the less I noticed it. Also for some reason I had a bit of trouble (minor) towards the end aerobically. Don't think it was anything serious, just the circumstances of the day. Overall I felt great. Was able to run with the elevation set to 1.5% the entire time. Walked a half mile as a cool down. After the run did some squats and calf raises to help strengthen my legs. Probably could have gone heavier with the weights, but I wanted to keep it light for now.
Running thoughts:
Had a guy next to me try to race me. Anytime I moved my speed up he did the same. Not sure why he wanted to do that since he came after I had started running and then also left before I finished so I guess I won? People are very interesting at the gym.
