Sluggy Slug

When our kids were much younger, we had a book called Sluggy Slug (see Amazon review here). This book was about, well, as sluggy slug, who just won't go, no matter what. I felt like a sluggy slug today.

My intent was to do a HR run (what is an HR run? click here). Well, I did an HR run (33 minutes, 6.78 miles), but boy, was I sluggish! I couldn't run fast at all. My legs were heavy throughout, and my left heel was a little painful for the first two miles as well. If I had the time this morning, I would have extended my run to 70 or 80 minutes, but after my run, I'm glad I didn't. I'm not sure how I would have felt to run longer today!
