Today's run: 4.13 recovery miles at 8:56 pace with 4 X Strides near the end. Legs felt pretty tight, sore, and fatigued during the run. Left calf, shin, Achilles tendon, were tight. Put on the compression sleeves and iced. Writing this, a couple hours after the run my legs are feeling pretty good. Starting to get loose and feel some pep in the step. Hope to build on this as I continue my taper.
