Distance: 7.1 miles
Time: 1:04:10
Average: 9:03
Run type: Tempo
Location: Up to Platte Woods
Weather: 85, overcast, humid.
Aches: General leg stiffness.
Injuries: None
Observations: 1) Threatening sky. 2. Neighbor and his dog out for a walk. The old hound - I think she's about 15 - looked pretty beat down by the heat and humidity.
Session comments: Right at first my legs felt pretty good, but it didn't take long and I could tell I wasn't completely recovered from Saturday's 16 miler. I still felt OK on the flat stretches and good on the downhills, but climbing was a struggle, and there is a lot of that on my neighborhood runs. I thought it was OK though, since I could rationalize that fighting through it was good training for the latter stages of the marathon when your legs feel about the same. I know I'll feel much better by Wednesday.
I didn't start raining until long after I finished.
