Ran 3 easy recovery miles in the morning. Legs still feeling pretty good, very little soreness, but felt a bit sluggish on the run. A bit muggy today but temps were pleasant.

8:56

Later at work ran 4 more miles. Felt much better than this morning, I guess I was just warmed alot better or something. Pace alot quicker but felt easier. Didn't pay much attention to the Garmin just ran what felt good. Glad to see the HR down below 150 now for paces in the low 8's.

Be glad your legs are doing good. My legs were aching pretty bad Sunday and Monday. Today much better but not ready to run yet.

Yes Terry I'm a pretty happy camper that my legs feel so good. Better yet Kim is feeling good too. You might as well take it easy for as long as the legs say to. No reason to jump back into running after a good solid 26.2 run in the heat on low mileage.

I love that pic! Was that fun race? I just might have to do it next year. Great job on the 7 miles!
