Greenbelt - 59:15

First test effort on the leg since last week. Did a warmup, then 5 x 1 mile tempo intervals, followed by a cooldown. Averaged 6:16 with about a minute recovery between. Warm out and lots of action on the greenbelt. Left calf went numb but felt pretty good otherwise.

20 minutes of core and cardio workout in the a.m. before the run.
