Comments: After the speed workout yesterday, easing up a bit and settling for a recovery run seemed like the best idea. Getting up this morning, it was clear that was the only option. I always forget how much speed efforts whip my ass. They always remind me.
That said, I didn't have any real problems with this one. Started fine, made myself slow down when I caught myself increasing the pace. The splits and overall pace came out a lot faster than I expected when all was said and done. My heart rate was ridiculously low as well. Time to recuperate and prepare for the long run Sunday.
