Short runs are not always easier

Four mile run today, and by the end,
my
legs
felt...
heavy

This was definitely a recovery run. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that until I had been running for about 2 miles trying to keep my speed up. I figured that after 12 miles, 4 miles should just fly by. My mistake. My time was faster, but I definitely felt the effort. Yikes.

On the bright side, I came home and did some deep movement with my legs, hips, and back - definitely feeling less sore in my quads and hamstrings and more open in my spine afterwards.

Did some light weights yesterday, and it felt like coming home. Might purloin my roommate's chinup bar a little later this afternoon and continue the reunion...
