Weather: 70ish, breezy, sneaky hot

Comments:
Did a bit of studying, then took off for the run. I found out this AM I'm now eligible to take the Boards -- but I'll probably wait 'til I get out there, with a tentative test date of 6/12. Just thinking about that gave me a bad stomach ache all morning. :S

Felt OK on the warm-up but the calves were trashed. Annoying. Not sure why they're trashed, other than from doing more quick running these days.

The AT went pretty well. I ran it on the UWRF course again, with 4 quick strides beforehand (which ARE getting better, thankfully). Kept it real easy this time, because I want to believe that whatever "AT" pace is, should ultimately be sustainable for a marathon pace! IDEALLY.

Went through the mile in 5:39 and the deuce in 11:12 (5:33). Slowed a bit (again) in the last mile because of the couple gentle ups/downs and the uphill finish. 17:40 5K. Not great, but much more relaxed/easy effort today than last week. Kept my breathing very relaxed until that last uphill.

Did some cooldown in campus then headed home.
