Sat 10/8 - AM 55 minutes

Various chunks of running around the dew-soaked fields of the Weston HS athletic complex. First was a too-short 10 minute warmup jog, but I couldn't gather up the motivation to get started any sooner. A few half-hearted drills before the jog which is of course ass-backward for me, evidence of how unfocused I was. Next was 12 minutes running 3x approx. 800m at just under 6:00 pace with slower jog recoveries of 200-300m in between. Then the full 5k course with the wild kittens, same idea with the changes of pace but slower of course. Then a too-brief 10 minute cooldown with motivation fading fast, and desire to eat lunch growing stronger by the minute. Left leg not nearly as bad as it was yesterday but still fairly stiff at the outset. Very warm day, record warmth in fact, but practice was early enough to avoid the worst of it.
