AM - 70 minutes very easy/easy, Lincoln woods. 6 strides in the parking lot at the end. Puttering along most of the way which was fine with me. Turns out the pace can be reasonable running with HS kids, it just depends on which gender. I should have known. Right thigh felt terrible doing the strides, apparently last night's strides didn't treat the area well at all. Chilly start to the morning but warming up rapidly by the end of the run.
PM - 60 minutes, Longfellow loop incl. 20 and 15 minute threshold runs with 5 minutes recovery. Optimistically planned on doing 2x20 minutes again, ran out of gas on the second one though. Something I thought might happen going in given the less than ideal rest last night coming on the heels of a long week and the morning run as well. Tried to make the efforts progress, this worked better the first rep than the second though. Desire to get something of substance in today rather than tomorrow trumped all that. Leg held up better than in the morning except for some downhill stretches where it didn't fare so well.
