Miles to Health

Speed

Today did 5 mile run suppose to be 4x1600 but did 6x800 with 400 recovery, had to move the incline to 2%, treadmill was sluggish at 1% incline definitely getting ready for a new one. Noticed pain in my left shin and calf stopped after 2 miles to stretch it out and I was fine for awhile. After my run did some yoga burn and After running stretching from the Bob Anderson Stretching Book. Stick to Tempo run on Thursday.

Got the book First Marathons by Gail Waesche Kislevitz from the library, that's what am reading now.

Edited to add:
It was a beautiful day today after work since I left early (got there early too) so I can get my son to his private music lesson (plays upright bass). Since I had all my gear in the car, did a quick change and went for a quick 2 mile run, it was indeed a beautiful fall day for a run. I thought the road will be quite since I know it had no side walk but boy was I wrong, it was extremely busy and I had to keep getting on the grass ( consider it a trail run) to avoid being hit, some of the drivers were nice and yield or slow down but others were ready to run me off. Got chase by 1 dog lucking his invincible fence zap hard enough for him to turn back. It was a nice rolling hill run.
