Exercise Type: Run

Weather: upper 30s and rain and dark

Comments:
Headed off after sunset around 5:30pm. Did the old standard loop essentially up Conn Ave, down Meadow Ln, and back via the Crescent and River Road (stopping at the gas station there for obvious reasons). Pace started slow and stiff, but loosened up nicely. By the time I was on the muddy Crescent trail, I was moving well. Pace was sinking effortlessly down to 7:00 and then below. I did push up Willard Ave a bit, but never really strained. It felt good to get a quality run in, but I don't think I'll feel beat up tomorrow or anything. I'd like a decent day tomorrow, either in length or quality so I can get over 30 for the week despite the two days off and keep some momentum going. If I'm serious about momentum, I should get a long run soon and some speed work below race pace.
