Tue 7/16 - PM 75 minutes easy plus 20 minutes in Walden

Lincoln woods. More or less stumbling through the woods for much of the time today. Not feeling especially spry and the oppressive humidity didn't help matters any. Last month's rains seem to have set the stage for a bumper crop of deer flies. The woods belong to them at the moment, something that's become unavoidably clear. All this made for a less than completely edifying time on the trails. Tried to do a windup of the pace the last 10 minutes, nothing to write home about. Calf fairly stiff at the end but glute still feels better than it has lately. Like last Tuesday, capped off the day with a bike ride up and down the minuteman bikeway, speed somewhere between leisurely and breakneck.
