Comments: It rained most of yesterday morning and, after considering it some, I realized I felt pretty fatigued. So I opted for an extra day off. It works well with my plan for every-other-day until two days prior to the race next weekend as well.
This run was pretty consistent. The first downhill mile was a reasonable effort and the second slightly faster. The first and second uphill mile went very much the same. That speaks a lot to my improving conditioning.
The strength I have built over the past six weeks is making more of a difference, which I could really feel on the final mile. The big question for next week is how well my stamina has come along.
