Well I certainly cannot do this everyday.  Whew! But hopefully one day I can look back and say I just went out for an easy 10 mile run.

Tried a different route today.  More hills than usual.  Winds are forecasted from 10 -20 today, and it felt like it.  Mostly in my face the 1st half and on my back the 2nd.  I ran on the the shoulder of the road for the most part in the dirt, grass, and rocks.  I think this may have helped cushion my legs a little more compared to the asphalt.  Legs are tired now.  Probably an easier and shorter run tomorrow.  And if the legs are hurting too much I will take a rest day.  Just do not want to do anything to injure them again.

I really planned on running 8:30 miles.  I need to discipline myself to take it easier for awhile.
