3 mi in 27:39
recovery run. Felt ok but no energy. Stride was good but had no power to generate any pace. Wasn't pushing since it was a recovery run and the pace in the first 1/2, at least, was 9-high mpm to 10-low mpm. Toward the end the same effort level resulted in 8-high mpm. Even so, I felt spent by the end of the very short and slow run (really it was all the way through, but even more so by the end). I didn't eat anything but a rice cake ahead of time and yesterday's intake wasn't very good refueling. Some if not most of the lethargy was probably due to poor eating yesterday.
