Nearly 57 hours after the race in Ohme this past Sunday I felt sufficiently recouped, so I went out for a short recovery run. I hit the road in a pair of split-toe socks, and jogged in my neighborhood without any specific pace or target distance in mind. After running a lap around a quarter-pie-shaped loop around the park, I was in a mood to run fast, so using a 350 M stretch on the other side of the park across the street I did intervals. I finished the first lap in 1:19.13. I set 1:20.00 as the target. I jogged back to where I started off, and repeated the fast run six more times. Half way into the session I felt a slight pain in the right instep, so I walked awhile instead of jogging, and when I felt OK, I started jogging again. These days I never push myself when I feel pain. Never push yourself through pain. Discomfort is OK, but pain isn't. The time of each of the seven laps is shown below:
