Legs of Lead

Wednesday: 
Couldn't stand the thought of dressing for -20F wind chills again so I hit the treadmill for an easy recovery run. Kept the HR near 130 at a pace of 8:00's.

Totals: 40:00   5 miles

This morning was back to the trails for a two loop run that left my legs feeling very heavy. Actually, right from the door the legs felt sluggish. I guess I will chalk it up to one of those days related to the increase in mileage and consistency. 
The trails are still in good shape and are turning a bit hard and icy in spots. This weeks will more than likely kill the trails, as the daytime temps will be hovering near the low 30's. No other headlamps to talk to this morning... just one deer that refused to move off the trails.

Totals: 1:18:08   9.6 miles
