My legs are sooooo sore from Saturdays race that I almost can't walk let alone run but I was able to complete a 6 miler at a very very easy pace! I ran out towards Payson Park but stopped about a half mile short as to cut out the rolling hills, next week I will extend out to the park, that will be my Monday run from here on out... Like I said the pace was very slow and I took a couple of little walking breaks, my average pace was 9:13 with my HR at  133, total time was 55:49. I rolled my legs with the stick last night but it didn't seem to help I am hoping that as the week goes on they will get better, at least I hope anyway. I finished up with some upper body weight training on the Bowflex, I am on my second week of the hundred push-up challenge, I will start my second week tomorrow.

See ya tomorrow.

Good job today. Cutting a run short isn't always bad. Sounds like you ran your hardest on Saturday if you are sore. Awesome feeling isn't it.
