7.6mi, 61:03

Undoubtedly influenced by reading about WHFS in its glory days...and by watching The Replacements last night on TBS (this, and other selected movies, are the only American football I don't clock against my 30 minute annual quota/time limit)

EMF, "Unbelievable" (yes, no shit.)
The Mission U.K., "Like A Child Again"
Catherine Wheel, "Strange Fruit"

WX at 0700: 30 (-1), DP 21 (-6), BP 30.22 (1023), winds N 5, RH 68%, wind chill 24 (-4)

Odometer 1: 267.5mi

Z-readings: Z3 hard. Attempting to push Z4 in the last leg.
Resting heart rate before start = 55

Yesterday marked no run. To prevent it from being a complete loss, I ended up doing about 125 Hindu squats during the early afternoon. That'll probably have to be the period of choice to do that exercise because at night is probably too late. I still felt it in the quadriceps, big time, but I experimented with going lighter on snivel gear (tights rather than pants) and it was a good choice.

It's too early to tell whether there's any real improvement, but I suspect it'll come in a few weeks so long as I stay consistent.

Tomorrow needs to be a recovery run. It might be a long one, though.
