North St Paul Community Center overhead track, four miles in 35:44, pace 8:56. The idea was to run four easy miles without pain, and it happened! Maybe just a little twinge going down the stairs, nothing more. I’ll try five miles on Thursday, 45 minutes at the Stillwater bubble.
Splits: 8:57, 8:54, 8:56, 8:57. According to the heart rate monitor, my heart rate peaked at about 140, higher than expected, but that was probably due to the stomach competing for resources to deal with a very recent 16-oz latte. Breathing was five footfalls per full breath, indicating an easy pace. Four footfalls would indicate a more normal pace.
This morning's breakfast: Organic oatmeal, organic blueberries, banana, Don's nut/fruit/berry mix, organic walnuts, organic fat-free milk.
Sunday's salad: Organic salad greens, cucumbers, organic blueberries, macadamia nuts, clementine, organic pumpkin seeds, blue cheese, organic balsamic vinegar.

Easy stretching on the calfs to keep them loose that will help with the Achilles.
