Comments: After the abysmal effort on Sunday, I decided it made sense to give myself an extra day off. I have run a lot of miles this year and I would prefer not overdoing it. There have been a number of low-level issues -- soreness, lethargy, lack of motivation -- which I don't want to blossom into something major.
The timing was ideal as a cold front pushed through making this morning's weather rather pleasant again. I made it a point to focus on cadence and keeping the exertion level very manageable. Still got a quicker overall pace than I was expecting though. Almost the whole run was in the Zone 4 heart rate so that's about what I wanted.
