Late afternoon

Fell short on mileage yesterday so today was just an attempt to log some easy ones. I realized that I can stretch together a nice 2-3 miles on grass through Conshohocken, so long as I can slip past any police that might catch me trespassing on public property. I can always slip in a pair of ear buds and claim I didn't hear them yelling at me. There is a pretty challenging hill that runs underneath some power lines, steep enough that I had to walk near the stop. And not because I was winded but because I started spinning my wheels on the gravel and losing my footing.

4.5 miles in 46 minutes

Strength comments: The deadlifts felt heavy but not unbearable. First lift always felt tougher than the second lift, which is weird. I guess I let my hips settle in a bit more on the second lift and focus more on using my legs.
