3.84 miles - 8:00 pace

Weather: Raining and Humid
Tempature: 78°
Wind: 9mph

Summary:
Matt Bonner, Jack Lynch, Simon Herron, Daniel Bandler, Daniel Frost, and I met at the Garipay Fields around 3:30pm. Although it was humid and rainy we set off towards the practice golf course, crossed the road, and ran through Pine Park. I originally planned to run 3 miles today to ease into training, but since some of us left our shirts near the mouth of the Pine Park trail and we planned on doing strides at Garipay we ended up running 3.84 miles instead. I think the extra mileage will only help prepare us for the mileage boost in the coming weeks. After the run we did four quick strides at Garipay and headed over to the Mini Co-op for a snack.

Body:
I felt surprisingly fluid for not doing any dedicated running for two weeks. Most of the outdoor track season my stride and form did not feel very smooth, but after this recent break I feel my old rythmic pace coming back. During the run the only time I felt any discomfort in my lower legs was when I was running this hill perpendicularly in the practice golf course. The way I stepped on the incline  bugged my right ankle. Afterwards I could still feel a little irritation in that area. I’ll be trying to take good care of any type of leg pains I feel precipiating this summer.
