5.1mi, 43:00

Orchestral Manoevres in the Dark, "If You Leave" (No shit. I'm almost mortified that this became a running mantra.)
Let's Active, "Forty Years" (Much better. I feel vaguely cleansed.)

WX at 0700: 28 (-2), DP 21 (-6), BP 30.13 (1020), winds NW 6, RH 74%

Odometer 1: 266mi

Z2-Z3.
Resting heart rate before start = forgot again.

A recent post on the Dead Runners Society list focused on the loss of training base after some time off. The poster (someone whose opinion I respect greatly for his insights on training tips) said two weeks is about all it takes to lose training base. This is probably holding true since my legs are starting to feel the effects of training again. The mornings are also exercises in some willpower since it's taking more concerted effort to get out the door, which I hope will change as it gets warmer.

A mite chilly this morning...a big change from wearing shorts yesterday.
