Jill's off work this week so she asked if I wanted to run with her today. As it was important I take this one easy, I thought this was an ideal way to keep my pace down. As an extra precaution, I also lined up a pretty soft music selection so I wouldn't get too pumped up and start sprinting off to some Slipknot or something. Really, it was a great recovery over the old Santa Fe trail. The weather was great, and although tired, my legs were basically fine except for some very minor right shin pain - I almost didn't even note it above, but I wouldn't want you to think this thing was too easy now, would I?
