Hard run as I was gunning for a specific location by a certain time, so I was pushing the finish fairly hard and the leadup was well in zone 4 just to stay on track. 6.13mi run was followed by a very easy 4.05mi walk that took 75:13.

I was also in full-on fat piece of shit mode yesterday and didn't do any exercise, which was, frankly undisciplined.

Still not feeling 100% even after easy days back to back. Felt some pain in my ankle, knees, and hamstrings, so I was gauging how I felt, but was starting to settle in finally with a properly quick cadence. But not what I'd hoped for.

Maybe not a recovery run, since I drove to Williamsburg and back to day to get Kid 2, as well as a physical therapy session that was actually a bit of work. I didn't expect to run at anaerobic threshold, but I was tired. But I needed to get a run in so I would feel better later, I think I do.

This was an unbelievably hard run that I might not have prudently done, but I felt good...and I wanted to see how hard I could go. Turns out I was able to keep speed for a sizeable chunk of this run and while the weather was just about perfect without it being too cold and risking pulling something.

I am going to have to be really careful about recovery work tomorrow after this hard run. This is the first time I think I've had my watch say I was running into zone 5.

The iThink was surprising; the cadence I was running lent itself well to the very last iThink. Even Touché Amoré's "Palm Dreams" wasn't hard enough for the cadence I was pulling.

Today was supposed to be an easy run and was, for the most part. I didn't work very hard, although that's not reflective of the heart rate reading. I'm not too worried about that, but wanted to make sure I wasn't burning up the legs too much, which I didn't think I was.

Or it's possible that I threw away a recovery day, but at the slow speeds I run, every day is effectively recovery if it's shorter than 6.

Today was a potentially stupid run since I decided to go out pretty hard.

It would be dumb as hell to blow my hamstring because I was careless. I will need to stretch more judiciously tonight.
