It was quite cold on the cinder track today. So, I kept all my layers on for the entire five miles.  The link below provides all the data recorded on my Garmin.  Once again I started slowly and added a few pick-ups to get a good warm-up.   I had no distance goal today, but hoped I could keep moving for a full 60 minutes.  Legs seemed fresh after a two-day layoff since my 400-meter workout.   I decided to try a few accelerated 800m in the middle of the run. The two 800m times were 4:40 and 4:33.  OK…

Felt used up at around 4 mile mark but pushed on to a final mile in about 11:00.   Tired tonight.

After sweating under multiple layers for 5 miles, my post-workout weight was a new low of 148.0 pounds!

Good stats.
