So I woke up for the day at the late hour of 6:45, fed the baby, ran an errand, strapped the kid into the jogging stroller only to discover that the right rear tire had gone flat, again. I just replaced it on Saturday. After futilely trying to reinflate it for half an hour, I was out of time and patience, and so I kicked my run to 8pm, after the baby's bedtime.
It was a good run. 3 miles at a good pace, followed by 5 strides. (The plan said six. The hell with the last stride, I said.) I'm not all that comfortable with speed yet, but I managed a good set of strides averaging around 6:30m/m.
Jogged home, stretched, rolled, but didn't get to bed until around 11. I'm trying to get more sleep but I have a hard time winding down. In any case, the only problem with working out in the evening as a catch-up is when the next day calls for six miles at 6AM.
I survived, and I maintained a good pace and cadence, but I was dragging by the end of it. Very glad tomorrow is a rest day.
