Mon 7/13 - PM run 1:40 Walden 20 minutes

Went around Sandy Pond with the right leg feeling it from yesterday's descent off of Burt Hill. These factors made the run go longer than expected, although not to an unsustainable extent. Right leg tight and twinging mainly on the lateral aspect, got steadily worse to the point of being totally obnoxious until I took a break at 45 minutes and did some compressions on the area. After that it was much better although still taking any downhill stretches very gingerly. The ability to run downhill grades smoothly and quickly looks to be the last thing to be re-established coming off the injury, and it's not even close yet. Tired but not exhausted by the end, relatively slow pace had something to do with that. Another dry, warm and sunny day, albeit with a bit more of a persistent wind.
