Tired legs

I've run five days in a row now, and 8 of the last 9, and my legs are tired. That's about 78 miles in 9 days. So, I'm ready for a couple of days off, which I'll get because I'll be on the road to South Dakota.

Tonight's run was 8 miles at an easy pace, and the way my legs felt I didn't have any trouble keeping it that way. I opened up with a mile at 10:14 and then settled in at about 9:40 the rest of the way. The overall average was 9:47 for 8.3 miles.

I've done 25 miles so far this week, and after a couple of days off I'll do 15 one day and possibly 3 or 4 one other day.
