AM: 5 easy with Kim around river bottoms. Left hamstring still tight and buggy, but everything else feels pretty good. Ave pace around 9:30. PM: 5 with Paul and Nate on a beautiful fall-ish sunny day. Just took it easy, had some good chit-chat about running, but also some deeper topics including discussing the eastern concept of "Zen" vs. the Christian concept of "listening to the Spirit" and whether they aren't really just the same thing. Left ham felt better but I still couldn't seem to get out of the running mode where my left foot slaps against the ground. Ave pace 8:23. |
