I ran the Payson park loop this morning and my legs were not feeling it at all, they were pretty whacked out so to speak! I was fighting a head wind for most of the run so the pace was slow for the most part. Average pace was 8:50, with my HR rate average at 140, total time was 1:03:05. If it wasn't the tired legs and the Head wind then it was the stomach issues, it was a very tough day but I was able to get through it, we are heading down to Queen creek Arizona tomorrow to spend the week with my sister-in-law, its suppose to be in the middle 80's so it should be fun. I plan on running every day down there so it should be fun, it will be nice to feel the warmth for a change. I will try and run tomorrow morning before we leave, but again it depends on the weather, its suppose to be bad again tomorrow so we shall see.

 

later.

Running in good old Arizona this morning, so nice and warm;) I just kind of freewheeled it and ran around Queens Creek and just enjoyed the scenery. We must be at lower sea level cuz after a couple of miles I looked down and I was averaging an 8:10 mile and I wasn't even breathing hard, I felt like I was in the twilight zone. Average pace was just under the 8 minute guy (7:58) total time was 55:53, no HR information I left my monitor at home, but the last two miles were 7:42 and then 7:26, after that I ran a 1.10 cool down 9:11 pace average. legs felt good lungs felt good and now its time to hit the links, see ya later.

 

Later.

I found a real nice running path and it was a lot of fun, if I would have had a shotgun I could have killed me a few rabbits and made me some rabbit stew;) I tried to keep the pace easier today, but on the way back I started to pick it up a bit with out knowing and anded up having a negative split. My legs were a little sluggish from yesterday but I was able to keep at it and get her done, average pace was 8:35 total time was 1:08:37. I had some sub 8:15 miles in the middle of the run but for the most apart I tried to keep it easy, I will probably do the same route tomorrow, it was a lot of fun,

See ya then.
