Yesterday was fun, the first truly snowy run this year (as in white stuff covering the ground while simultaneously falling from the sky).  It worked out great because I wanted to keep a modest pace and since the path was slippery, I didn’t have a choice.

Funny though, last night was the first time in weeks where my legs and butt were sore after a run – this from dealing with the snowy path, but ironic that it should happen from a recovery run.  Happily, I woke up today with nothing smarting, so business as usual.  Almost.

In the last entry I wrote that I was going to do intervals today, but the path was still snowy with only a few clear areas so I went the fartlek route instead, which worked out great.  It was a fun change and in the end, I got in 15+ minutes of sub-5K hard running, which is actually a useful amount of speed.

Tomorrow 9 easy.
