AM - 60 minutes incl. 5k road race in Worcester. This race was won in 18:30 last year so I thought I could win the cash prize w/o overly exerting myself, didn't bother bringing flats or starting the watch as a result. It didn't matter in the end as the winner made a definitive move just before the mile mark (not that there were any mile markers) and left all of us in the dust. I ended up working harder than I would have liked to hold onto second, worth a pair of shoes, as consolation. Course was obnoxious, twice around a loop that included two short steep hills at the beginning of each loop. The wind was more annoying still, gusty blustery and just nasty all morning long. Cold morning to begin with, the wind chill wasn't welcome. The effort wasn't the best thing for the right hammie which felt stiff and sore on the cooldown.
PM - 40 minutes very easy, Area 51. Went back and forth all afternoon on doing this shakeout. Finally decided I needed to do something easy to loosen up the right leg and do some stretching after. Only half successful with the stretching. Continued cold but not as windy, took all day for the gusts to blow themselves out.
