A Sluggish Run

Despite of my weight reaching new lows the last couple of
days, this morning's run felt sluggish. I swam once but
didn't run a single mile since last Sunday. So nothing to
complain about. I could still feel slightly the PF under the
right foot and the ITBS on the left hip. I think I lost good
cadence after a while--will bring my metronome next time.

More runners appeared on the trail and it seemed most were
having a great time. This made me think of re-joining local
runners. Do I need companies now?

I turned around after mile 4 and finished the 8.5-mile run
at a pace of 8:49.

OK. The only positive thing was that I did it--I just
dragged myself out of bed and ran 8 miles ;-)
