Day 28: 2mi, 17:30

Just wanted to turn the legs over tonight. HR 114 at t+1, 80 at t+5. Even at this pace had some muscle pain in the adductor area.

Still planning a mile on the track tomorrow, weather permitting (some snow in the forecast). Best guess, assuming no major muscle problems, is somewhere between 5:30 and 6. My program: A light stretch first, then run a mile or so warm-up (2min, 1:50, 1:45, and 1:40 or so for the 400s), then a full stretch. In the mile, I'll try to go out in 1:20, then a couple of 1:25s, then see if I can run the last one a little faster. That would bring me in between 5:30 and 5:35, but I'll likely be a couple of seconds behind these times each lap. For cooldown, I'll jog a couple of laps.

And I'll take a little inspiration from Gail Devers, who at age 40, won the women's 60m hurdles at the Millrose games tonight. Adidas says impossible is nothing; I say age is nothing.
