Comments: Had some business to deal with this morning and got out later than usual. It was a little bit warmer but the humidity wasn't too bad. The bigger issue was my legs just felt leaden and tired. Not sure exactly why.
As a result, I had no plans for this effort and my cadence shows it. Despite that, I ended up going a little faster than expected. Only a bit of the run was in Zone 5 heart rate. Eighty percent of the effort was in Zone 3 and Zone 4. Not sure what that means.
Looking forward to the rest day.

Injury update: My lower back on the right side began feeling stiff earlier this week. While it's never been a "sharp" pain, the discomfort was really noticeable yesterday and this morning. It doesn't seem to be affecting my running thus far.
