Was very sore for the first two days after the race, but started to be able to walk without pain by Wednesday. Rode my bike into work on Thursday, and that felt good, although still a bit tight in my right hamstring. Took Friday off again because of the rain.
Went out today (Saturday 3/3) for about 16k along the Arakawa. Was surprised how stiff my legs felt, and it was a pretty tough effort overall. At the turnaround point, I ran up the side of the riverbank for some hill repeats 10 times. Got chilled by the south wind on the way home.
My first second run in the Sole Runners, and they felt pretty good. Got some thick, warm socks from LL Bean, which helped. Ran quite a bit on the grass, although it was quite wet and muddy in places, which was a bit slippery, although I was happy that my feet didn't really get wet. Ran mainly on the road on the way back, but no soreness on the bottom of my feet. I think these will workout great as my main training shoe, but won't likely do much racing in them.
Probably going to have to take tomorrow off because of work, although I may try to sneak in something short.
