Out to Mini Gu and back. I took yesterday off hoping it would revitalize the old legs but it didn't do a damn thing! Oh well, atleast I got her done this morning. My average pace was 8:56 with a total time of 54:47, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

I ran Payson Canton this morning with the guys, I felt  a lot better than last week and my pace was better and more even, I felt pretty good through the rollers too which was a good sign. I had  a problem navigating my damn watch this morning, after a few miles I stopped and then I forgot to start and then at Maple Dell I took a potty break and accidentally hit save instead of resume... So had a split run but it still added up to just over 11 miles, but I figured the average pace for the two runs was 7:44 with a total time of 1:26:21. So pretty decent and I seem to be trending in the right direction.

See you tomorrow.

I hit the wall at Mile 2 and it was a death march the rest of the way! I'm not going to try and anylize it to much and just chalk it up to a bad day. My average pace was way slower than I have ever been at 9:46  with a total time of  2:07:55, this was litterally all that I could  run this morning.

See you Monday.

Payson Park Loop and it was my slowest time ever on this route. I really dont know what is going on with me but my legs seem to always feel like they have hit the wall and there is know zip or strength in them at all. Very frustrating. My average pace was really slow at 9:24 with a total time of 58:41... That average is a full minute off what my average pace should be and has been in the past... Very Strange.

See you  tomorrow.

Out to Mini Gu and back again, it was hot and the run felt like it took forever but the pace didn't really reflect that as it was respectible. My average pace was 8:37 with a total time of 52:51. My legs just were not loose at all but hey I was able to get her done.

See you tomorrow.
