Class didn't start till 9, so I had time to run in the morning (and got to sleep in till 6!). It was chilly (low 20s) with some wind (approx. 10 mph).
I ran 2 warmup miles (at about 9:20), then 2 fast miles (at approx. 7:40 apiece), one recovery mile (@ 9:10 or so), 2 more fast miles (at approx. 7:55 pace), then about 1/2 mile home.
Honestly the second set of fast miles felt hard. My stomach was sloshing around a little and I don't know why because I hadn't had anything to drink before going. So I was relieved to be done.
Then I ran around 3.6 with my bro, who is visiting. We ran about 9:30 pace, and that felt slow, but necessary. This wasn't a great feeling run, but whatever.
And Luke's bone marrow transplant yesterday went fine. Now he's going to be very susceptible to infection for the next few weeks--I can't remember exactly how long--and will be in isolation for quite some time. |
