Wednesday 5

Seems like 5 miles is the distance of the week so far as I’ve done 3 5 milers. Hot weather really seems to slow me down. The effort level is much higher than the pace! 78 degrees (feels like 82) with 93% humidity. Ran with the faster group, but they were running easy, one tapering for a triathlon this weekend. So I kept up! Pushed well and felt good. Really focusing the lift part of my stride, lifting my leg from a limp, relaxed calf muscle rather than focusing on the down stroke. Back is feeling much better and is on the way to full recovery and for that I’m so thankful.
