Run rest run

Three days in one.  I ran a slow 4.0 on Thursday, the slowest ever, 9:42 average pace.  I took Friday off, mostly because I didn't get enough sleep Thursday night and I went to the movies.  Today I felt rested and strong.  So I set off on my run.  I didn't have a concrete plan when I left.  At first I thought I would take a slow 8 miles, but after getting warm and loose the first mile, I decided to run.  So it ended up more like a tempo run, 6.6 miles total.  It felt very good.  I almost started running again during my cool down walk when a really good song came on my iPod, but I held back and just walked.  It felt good, and now I'm in full on recovery mode.
