it was very blustery both of these days. monday i had a strong cross-wind and tuesday i went in the arb and hardly noticed it.
monday: 5 easy ~8:00 pace for the first half and ~7:45 for the second half. My legs felt surprisingly good after the sunday long run. i didn't feel especially peppy, just not especially bad either. it was raining like crazy, so i wore my neon orange jacket and was completely dry when i got back. that was $35 well spent!
tuesday: 5 miles in the arb ~8:15 pace. today my legs felt kind of bad. i think it was 3 days in a row of feeling awesome and slightly pushing the pace catching up with me. i also felt kind of dehydrated, though, so that might have been part of it. it seems like it's always a bit slower in the arb, so it was probably a more typical pace/effort, but my legs certainly felt more fatigued.
great title!
