Active Recovery

10 miles, 10:00-10:30 pace

My legs felt GOOD today. I had the usual soreness but my legs weren't tired. Once I started running I couldn't feel any evidence that I had raced the day before. This was the most I have been able to run the day after a race and it felt really nice. I decided to do some hills because my quads didn't get to much action yesterday with that flat course. I ran a nice two mile hill loop right outside of my apartment. the down hill section is pretty steep and about half of it was still snow covered so it was a lot of fun. Technical down hill running is my favorite. Today reminded me of sled riding as a kid. I always hated walking back up the hill but that never stopped me from sledding down. I thought I might stop after 3 loops but I was having to much fun running down through the snow I had to keep going.
