slow, recovery + prep run, playing with idea of running capital city half marathon this sunday (may 20).  The last race i actually raced was last year's capital city full marathon, then have been nursing injury for past year.  I think i am ready to finally race again (miss it a ton).  Never ran a half before, not sure exactly my strategy for the race

4.01 miles, 8:10 average

8:29, 8:13, 7:54, 8:06
