Running 39:57 [3] 7.7 km (5:11 / km)
shoes: 200712 NB Absorb EX 11.5
Another morning run in an attempt to trim my deficit relative to Lori for our training time in February. In general, I felt good - my mood was certainly improved after my run, but for the past week or so, I have felt a strange pinch and pain in my right calf just below and to the right of my knee. It aches the most when I bend my knee, and then only some of the time. I suppose this suggests a slight muscle injury.
Apart from the ache, all was well; I ran with a 5 step per breath rate for the first half, then switched to 4. Heart rate clocked at 177 at the end of the run. I wonder who first tried putting grains in a hot fluid to make porridge; it strikes me as extremely nonintuitive. My morning concluded with oatmeal, which I prepared counterintuitively.
