OBJECTIVE
3 miles : slow

ACHIEVED
3.03 mi. @ 8:34/mi.

5:11 AM 79° 79% 5 mph

Stretched out over an easy three miles this morning. The run was uneventful except at the end of two miles my left IT band flared up in a big way! Oddly, the pain subsided shortly after it started. That hasn't happened before. My legs felt good and my cardio felt untested this morning. I was a bit faster than I wanted to be but I think that's due to yesterday's rest and an eagerness to get the week's running underway.

Tomorrow is 4-6 miles. I'm thinking I'll go 6.
