Days in a Row

Today:
Distance: 8.9 km
Time: 49' 01"
Rate: 5' 30" per km
Weather: cloudy, temp 16 degrees, humidity 55%, ESE wind at 25 kmph
Week: 35.0 km, April: 300.85 km, Year: 1413.25 km

Somehow I have managed to run on 24 days in a row. Not long ago I considered 4-5 days too much before needing a rest day. Some of these past 24 days have been short jogs after a bike ride or similar. But time, not effort is catching up.
Today's easy run wasn't as easy as it should have been. A small sign of that was a couple of aching quads at the finish even though it was basically flat. Just an indication of over training, not over distance but too many days of exercise without a break. Rest day tomorrow unless it is warm, sunny and no wind, in which case I may go to the oval. Then rest on Thursday.
The weekend weather forecast is not good, especially with the monthly handicap on Sunday, and a very long run planned for Saturday.
