Volunteered for the first race of the VIRA series this morning, fun to watch the fast guys run. Was pretty impressive to watch the top two gun it out over the last 50 meters in near Canadian record time. Beyond that I have been nursing a sore leg for the last week or so and it has been affecting me more than I have been willing to admit. I almost didn't run today due to it but finally made the decision to go out and give it a try. The real challenge has been of late to find a stride that feels comfortable, I just feel out of sync. Reminds me of the TED episode on the same subject. It took me almost 8km to find the right feeling again, despite the pain in my leg. I didn't want to push it or my luck for that matter so I called it a day shortly after that. I feel really good now, my leg aches but I can manage, stretch, ice, arnica and probably run again tomorrow.
10 km, 52:30, 5:14 pace
Sleep: 6.5 hr, 5/10
Legs: 4/10
