Early morning run.  Temps nice and cool but a little muggy.  I was surprised to find the legs seemed to have a little extra zip so decided to do an MP progression run.  Start out comfortable then gradually speed up so that I hit MP about 1/2 way through the run then just try to hold it until the end. I was pleased with the run and how the legs were feeling.

I like extra Zip days. I just wish I would always have those days on Race days.

Yeah Terry try as I might I just can't seem to figure out how to dial up that extra ZIP on demand.
