| | left the house @5:00 perfect morning - cloudy, 60degrees @mile 2 I took my long sleeve off and ran in sport bra -all for 'free'dom day :) Ran a comfortable (amazingly enough) 8:32 average pace for the run 1:33:52 - did feel my i-t band...but I hadn't run in a few day or stretched...I was a lazy camper with a lot of walking and again no stretching. I should be good though | | Comments(3) |
