3.85 miles fast

I was torn between trying to avoid injury and wanting to stay sharp for Saturday, but thought I could manage a steady evening run round my occasional 3.85-mile route without doing too much damage. I didn't start off terribly fast but was somehow way ahead of schedule at Kirklee Bridge. Despite losing about 20 seconds trying to cross Queen Margaret Drive, I made it home in a clear route PB of 23:36, 6:07 per mile. My left hip tightened up soon afterwards and I was limping around for an hour or so.
