5/23/12 (Wednesday) Run

Today I ran 8 miles in 1:01:59.  It was just an easy run with strides in the last mile.  I know I need to recover, but I also don't want to lose my conditioning. 

5/22/12 (Tuesday) Run

Today I ran 7 miles in 54:18.  Another easy run with strides during the last mile.  Even in recovery, it is difficult to take it easy : )
