A 'Comfortable' 12km

Week 17 begins today : First 3km of 12km was more of a shuffle than run; terribly stiff & stopped at 6km to do a bit of stretching to loosen up more. Cool, windy morning; kept HR around 70% of max., so that's a 'comfortable' zone I suppose. Ran mostly on a soft, almost muddy dirt road after all the recent rain. PS : If anyone happens upon these jottings of mine & you can see the "error of my ways" or where to improve, please do comment.
