After the soreness of Sunday and the weird explosion of pain Tuesday morning, I headed out for tonight’s run with a bit of trepidation. Fortunately the right leg held up and only felt a bit stiff afterward.
It was brisk and a good breeze was blowing but it made no difference once I got started and got all sweaty and junk. I deliberately used caution, aiming for a slower but steady pace and in the end I paradoxically beat my last 5K pace (a statistical tie at 5:26/km but still). My BPM also dropped back down to 159, It seems the key to a good run is to not be stupid and macho. Who knew?
