Death day.  That's what I felt like.  We just did a few sprints but with a new leader heading the charge.  The recovery time was quicker than usual.  I couldn't breathe and was feeling light headed after the first four.  However, I managed to keep my legs moving and my "sprint" probably looked like a jog to an outside observer, but it hurt.  Pulled out of the group for our cool down jog back and just took it at my pace.  It took me a good 40 minutes to recover.  Probably pushed a little too hard.  That's what I get for not easing back into it.

Beautiful run day.  The temp was just right so that I didn't have to bundle up.  T-shirt and shorts.  Ran over to Stripes and back.  Left shin started acting up so I slowed down a little.  This is what happens when you quit cold turkey from your running program and eat way too much over Christmas and then decide you don't really want to work off the extra weight you put on.  Somehow, it will just disappear magically.  Still waiting for that magic trick to happen.

Last time around this loop.  Got up at 2:50 a.m. and was out the door by 3:25.  One last time to experience this loop route during the quiet of an early morning.  Felt like I could just go forever.

To Mile - 10:17.57

Mile - 10:29.35

Finish - 30:30.94 = 51:17.86

Met a skunk out running in the early morning as well.  I gave him lots of space and let him pass in front of me.  As soon as he was by me he lifted his tail and I gave him an even wider berth and took off.
