Weather - 40 degrees, clouds, rain. Last night I was telling myself that I had blundered by running too many miles this past week, which did not allow my legs to fully recover from the 15K race. I woke this morning thinking I would have to once again skip bike interval session #5, but surprisingly my legs felt somewhat better, not 100% but close to it. So I ran 1/2 mile to Cardinal and ran 3.5 miles on the treadmill as a warm-up. I then did the bike interval session, and finished off with another 3 miles on the treadmill. I ran about 2 of the miles between 5:56-6:26 pace, it did not seem too difficult, my aerobic fitness appears to be improving. Afterward 5 sets of strength exercises, stretching, and 15 minute walk home. #135 z.m. - #49
