Comments:
Not very pleased that right when I've decided to intensify my training... I'm taking every other day off. Alas, focus is not my strength and it has been an extremely hectic week, despite the fact that we are in the week between seasons.

I had 21 minutes to run this afternoon before collecting Leah form Yoga and I meandered into deep Chevy Chase, essentially circling Lafayette in a grand sweep and ending at yoga. When lew showed up to drive us home -as the thunderstorm was seconds away - I decided to run home anyhow and stretched wha had been 3 slowly building miles into 3.5 with some lightning-intense tempo for that final, winding half mile to home. Entered the house as the skies opened and hailstones descended from the sky. The run had started off very stiff and slow, but I'd just started to loosen up around 2.5 miles in.
