Brisk Run


Sub-thirty 5k.  Pretty cold out, since the sun had set.  I would like to invest in some cold-weather running gloves.  I really like these Saucony Ulti-Mitts.  I saw them at Jack Rabbit for fifty bucks... maybe I'll do some online shopping later.  I did get my two new pair of Recovery Socks in the mail, I got a great deal on those.  
Good run.  I'm happy with the effort.  HR was a bit high, but this was a Z3 workout, and it was relatively short.  I won't be too hard on myself.  Trying to focus on form and on engaging my big muscles (hamstrings, glutes) while I run.  I am also trying to focus on good arm position, keeping the elbows bent and behind my body, while wrists relax at waist height.  Makes my shoulders and upper back sore.  Tired, not sore... tired.
