Missed the group this morning but headed out on my own. A balmy 21°. 7 easy miles followed by 2 @ 5:40 and then a steady effort (6:30ish) the rest of the way. Felt a little tired from the race but overall it went well.

 

PM: 5 on the treadmill. Progressive from 6mph to 11mph. 1% incline. Felt good. Weights after.
