Routine five-miler on the TM. Still some residual soreness in the rectus (recti?), but that's mainly an issue when I sneeze, not when I run. For now, anyway. Just kinda cruised the five at 9:22 pace; took about three miles to really get warmed up, then the legs felt stronger the last five miles. I'm really trying to take advantage of the TM to work on my cadence, pick it up instead of loping, which is my tendency. If I really focus on cadence, I'm in the mid-170s at a slow pace, better at a faster pace. Even got over 180 last week for about four minutes. I know it's not supposed to be that way, your cadence is supposed to be the same at any speed, but it's not for me, at least not on the TM. |
