Today was the first day that I felt like I had been running consecutive days. My legs were a bit on the stubborn side and it took a good mile before they loosened up. Mile 2 was a lot better and my stride felt more "natural". I am still having issues with pace consistency, but I am guessing that the long runs will teach me a lesson there. I may venture out tonight for an easy 2-mile run before the longish 6-mile run this weekend.
On a non-running related note, lunch was interesting today. About 8 of my co-workers and I ventured out for a "mobile lunch"... or something like that. Basically, 10 or so food trucks pull into a parking lot and peddle their foodie wares. There was far more selection than I expected. For the daring, there was a grilled cheese sandwich with caramelized onions, bbq sauce and macaroni and cheese. I think it was called The Angioplasty Suprise or The WTF sandwich. For the food fearful, there was the always-safe pizza cart. Pizza looked pretty good, but after waiting in line for 20 minutes and watching the line move by one Wisconsin Cow every 2-3 minutes, I gave up (after confirming that a happy ending was not included in the $3.75 price tag). I opted for a sloppy and delicious Italian beef sandwich. It was awesome.
Stay tuned for the results from the weekend run.

Final Thought: I saw a rabbit in the yard this morning. He ran and so did I.
