Training Streak: Day 83

6:15AM

Tempo Run

That brick is affecting me a whole lot more than I thought. This morning my legs still felt heavy even though I was wearing my running flats. I did a quick mile warm up followed by a tempo run. The tempo run consisted of me doing a mile and a half where I brought it up to race pace on every straightaway. Despite the sluggish beginning, my legs started to loosen up and I started to work in some times close to pre-injury. I still have a ways to go but I like the way I'm progressing.

I followed this run up with another ice bath and compression socks. I think I've done all that I can to prepare my body for the 10K. I know I'm not hitting it too hard but I still have to be conscious about listening to my body.
