A Solid 6

I really felt I got back on track today with a 6 mile run. I was feeling down about the short run the other day, so I put the nose to the grindstone and ran 6 miles. I felt good for the most part.

I headed up to Evanston and did the along the lake route. Overcast and in the 40s - perfect running weather, but to be fair I would like some sun with my run. I was pleased with my time, though I realized I went out a bit too fast, I slowed it down a bit heading back.

The only thing which bothered me was my hips were feeling it about 2 miles to go. Maybe more stretching is needed? Not sure. Something to be mindful of.

Also .... today I registered for the Soldier Field 10 Mile Race. My last 10 mile run was the same race last year. While I may not PR, I sure as heck hope I do well.
