This kind of run has been typical of this summer: I felt very sluggish going out the door, and felt like I was just kind of stumbling stiffly along the road for the first half mile of my usual 6-mile loop. Eventually, I felt better but throughout the run felt as though I were moving very slowly, and was conscious of fatigue in my quads and calf muscles -- leftover from the race on Sunday, no doubt.
But then, a huge surprise, I finish and my watch says 41:42, and average of better than 7:00 pace. I'm running pretty fast but feeling as thought it's really slow.
Spent a lot of time stretching afterwards.
