Second recovery week, and I'm feeling fairly good. I've kept most of my running very easy, but did let myself pick up the pace a bit on Saturday. I'm also letting some of my easy runs become more "moderate" of lack of a better term. Still very comfortable, but I don't feel the same need to keep everything to a crawl when I'm not running hard workouts.
This week I also reintroduced swimming and strides and drills. I realized quickly just how much I missed swimming - it's ridiculous how great I feel post-swim. On the other hand, drills and strides feel awkward and clunky, which likely indicates how much I need to keep doing them.
One more week until I start workouts again.
