Training Run

Distance: 5.5 kilometers (3.41 miles)
Time: 30 minutes
Surface: asphalt, concrete, grass
Weather Conditions: cool, overcast, misty, 60s, morning run
Location: Miraflores, Lima, Peru

Comments: Nice easy recovery run. I kept a slow steady pace just a notch above actual jogging the whole way. Every time I caught myself going a bit quick I slowed it down. 

After stretching and limbering up I felt pretty ready to go but the soreness in my right lower quad still persisted. It's like I got frogged there pretty hard. Very similar to the knot in my neck right now. 

It loosened during the run although it was still lurking around following the the effort. My feeling is still that it is muscle soreness, particularly since it is well above the knee, but I'll start icing if it hangs around tomorrow.
