Gym - pretty close to zero miles

Given my immanent office move I decided to use the gym today.

Span the legs on the dreaded treadmill, hated it. 1.0% incline, eased into 4min kms after ratcheting for 8 mins and held it there for 3 mins, which got the hrt up to 160 then I eased off and went outside to stretch.

During the few minutes at race speed I noticed my right thigh tighten ever so slightly and refuse to ease, this in turn made me run heavy on the left to compensate. By the time I was done I had a muscle spasm on the front of my left shin that took some effort to shift, but the sauna helped!
