Stuck inside due to weather and ran at night to get some extra sleep. Warm up was not great, left quad twingy and right calf very tight. Got off and did some dynam stretches to shake it off. Did tempo mile in 8:30, felt fatigued at the end and right shin starting to burn so got off again to stretch and recover. Did another mile at 7:53 and felt better despite harder pace, focused on breathing and mantra of "easy" definitely fatigued at the end but loved being at race pace and not collapsing! Did cool down and felt very tight at the start, muscles screaming even going slow but got it in.
