55F, SSW 20-28 mph.  8:16 AP.  Legs are less sore but still quite dead.   I did get a sub-8 mile on the way home with a tailwind though!

I'll take another day off tomorrow and we'll see what that does.

48F. Evening run in Lawton, OK.  I ran from my hotel, which apparently is not in a good part of town...whoops.  Kinda shady, but I just needed a short recovery run.
