5/30/13
Tue 5/28 - AM 85 minutes very easy
Slow slow putter in Portland, starting and ending on the roads with a trip from Lower Macleay Park to Upper Macleay Park in between. Revisiting the forest after yesterday is I suppose the ultimate hair of the dog but the level of effort wasn't at all the same of course. Followed Wildwood to Holman Lane, passing within yards of the start/finish line of the race, then went up and up Holman to NW 53rd. More climbing than I'd expected. Got it all back heading back down to rejoin Wildwood off Cornell. Inevitable rain showers started about 30 minutes or so into the run and got stronger for the next 30 before tapering off. Took a few stops to read signs and whatnot, no real urgency to the morning. Couldn't have moved quickly if I wanted to, legs are tired and very flat from yesterday. The right calf, which behaved well enough yesterday that I didn't think to mention it in writing the angst-filled recap for yesterday's entry, acted up a bit near the end. Still quite tight of course, did it no favors by not stretching after the race yesterday. On the way back to the hostel I passed by streets named Quimby, Kearney, Lovejoy, and Flanders before it occurred to me that something was up.
