You sure are moving quick for rest week. 
I do know what you mean about headwind in every direction. I never feel like i get the benefit of wind to my back most runs.
I was hoping for a nice light run today but my friend had other plans while our kids were at practice. Calf is pretty tender from sprinting.

I think there’s a couple ways to approach a down week. Significantly drop the mileage but keep a speed workout. Drop the miles by about 20-30 percent and drop your quick runs. Both are good options for recovery IMO.
I try to take special notice when I have a tail wind every run so that I don’t get discouraged but for the last month and a half, the wind has been relentless.
Had several workouts and two races that were significantly impacted because we can’t get a break in the weather up here.
Garmin said that half had 15mph NW wind; figured that cost me at least a minute or two.
Anyhow, enough of my petty bitchin. That Strava group is really starting to kick some arse. If it gets big enough we may have to put on our own event.
