Sun 9/9 - AM 85 minutes incl. 16k progression run

Back to the Longfellow loop for the first time in a good long while. Still feeling the effects of Friday's misadventure, such that getting out of bed was no easy task. Lolligagged around a good chunk of the morning, not exactly looking forward to trying this workout. Today was the only chance to do it though, eventually forced myself out the door. By this time it was late morning and had the weather not been well on the way to changing over to drier cooler conditions it could have been problematic. However, with relatively mild temps and some overcast it wasn't a concern. Thought that the first loop might have been too quick as I was doing it but the pace settled into a groove after that and the final lap things picked up noticeably without killing myself to do it. Splits:

5:58/6:05/2:56
5:58/6:00/2:53
5:57/5:57/2:53
5:50/5:47/2:45

Some soreness in left adductor, not sure what caused it but it didn't bother things at all once warmed up.    Still having difficulty fitting in post-workout stretch and strengthening routine since the resumption of the coaching schedule, too tired to move around much after dinner.
