quality summer run

August 7, 2012 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: mid eighties and humid, as usual

Comments:
Discarded the shirt less than a mile in. Didn't get out until 10:45am which was foolish. Parked at Battery Bailey and ran Little Falls trail to Brookmont to Canal to Cabin John Br and back along MacArthur and Little Falls. Stopped to stretch at the Crescent and then again at Cabin John. Both knees nagged, but the right, as usual, gave me the most trouble and distracts me from getting a rhythm. Still, I pushed through a few rough patches and even finished with a decent effort up the final hills (from Brokmont and up to the Battery [past Spergel's mom!]). Felt awfully wiped out at the end and staggered around the parking lot as if I'd just run a workout, even though I'd probably only been working to maintain sub 8:00 pace.
