Post Race Recovery Run/Walk (4.1mi)

Getting a bit more active and took the dog for a trail run/walk intervals.

Weight: 138 lbs
Time: 44 min

Napped after lunch and got to bed before 8:45pm.  I slept hard, and will probably need to keep an early schedule for the rest of the week.  After warming up I stretched, and did lower body cross training.

Kept to the 4 mile course from yesterday, but did 8 min/2 min run/walk intervals.  Never got any faster than a 9:30/mi pace during the run sessions.  Interestingly, this actually was less painful than the walking sessions.  However, the downhills were always uncomfortable.


Tomorrow I plan on sticking with the run/walk intervals, but extending the mileage.  I'm not sure if I'll have any specific pace in mind.
