Comments:  Run started weak.  Felt no energy.  Legs felt tight esp. hamstring.  Under the knees felt tight too.  Maybe bcos didn’t take vitamins today.  No vitaC, no vita-B complex.  Breathing all unsynched until 1km ++.  Only after 2k then started fell better to enjoy the run.  Breathing esp superb on return trip after Jetty End.  Heel felt fine all throughout.  BTW, tempo song running in my mind is again Shakira’s “Hips Don’t Lie”.  Hahaha

 

Postrun:  Cool down 10 min, no stretch.  Felt really sleepy at 9pm writing this.  Last nacht slept at 3am.  Need to sleep more.

 

Characters:  One elite runner in all fluorescent yellow outfit.  Another semipro runner with yellow t-shirt.  One envious semipro jogger jogging with kids.  On the way there saw two elite runners running on the highway at breakneck pace.
