Finally something of quality to cap off a lost week. Took a good long time to get out the door though, and multiple naps over the course of the day which is ominous. More ominous was the soreness in the left patellar tendon, something I first noticed after the 5k race six weeks ago. Since then it's cropped up after races but not so much during workouts but a noticeable tenderness there that I could feel throughout. Will bear watching and hopefully will respond to some manipulation of the quad muscles and whatever else might be tugging on it. Goal of the workout was to get through it in one piece and beyond that to run the second lap of each rep a bit faster than the first. In this it was a success straight through, with the fastest lap of the workout being the last one. Recoveries (200m jog) within sets got a bit slower as the effort caught up to me in the second and third sets. Splits:
2:47.4 (51.2)
2:45.1 (51.8)
