Shorts!

Another warm day today, which has been quite rare this winter. 42 degrees this afternoon, and I was able to run comfortably in shorts. Pace was about 5-10 seconds slower than MP, which felt pretty comfortable but my soleus muscles did feel pretty tight. Will give the calves a good foam roll here in a bit to loosen things up, but not a big deal.

Tomorrow will be a scheduled rest day. I've only taken one in the past 19 day span, so I'm due. Have to remember that rest and recuperation are more important than the ego.

Ran 5.6 miles @ 7:25/mile pace.
AHR/MHR - 146/159
Paved roads.
Moderately hilly.
Lower 40s, overcast.
Brooks Mach 11, shorts, windbreaker, short sleeved shirt.
