Sunny, slightly breezy, and 71° F. Seems like a horrible crime to do only 2 miles. If not for the 5k tomorrow morning, I could have went out for at least 10.
I went out and tested my legs in my Mizuno Wave Rider 11s. I’ve been holding back the last two days, to an almost painfully slow pace (11:13 pace Wednesday and 10:46 pace yesterday). My goal tomorrow is sub-22. However, with a couple EASY quick pickups, one close to a 6 minute pace, I feel that I can do far better that 22–I just have to convince the legs to play along.

- Streak day 20! #twit2fit Was a little dehydrated and had allergy issues this morning. Oh, and scratchy technical shirt, 4.3 miles, an extra 10 pounds, and no band-aids is a bad mix.
