Payson park loop this morning but I cut out the rollers, I haven't ran this route in a while. I felt okay but not great, I had an 8:30 mile on mile number 4 so that was a pleasent surprise, my average pace was 8:57 with a total time of 55:51... Thats a better time as of late but I'm still feeling run down and no energy, I am going to stay consistant all week and see how it goes. Finsihed up with some push-ups, 3 sets.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran the Mini Gu Corner route this morning, I probably went a little to far, I should have just went 3 or 4 miles as opposed to the 6 miles that I went. But its all good and I'm so proud of myself these last few days, I just need to get back into that routine again and enjoy the morning air. My average pace is still slower but not bad I had an average pace of 9:09 with a total time of 55:23, its been a good start to the week.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran some hills this morning, I ran up to the mailboxes via mount Loafer school and then down Woodland Hills drive to Canal road and then back to the house. I felt okay on the uphill but felt awful on the downhill part, very rough and my pace going both ways was really slow. My average pace was 9:29 with a total time of 54:10.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to mini Gu again this morning, my stride finally lengthened and I felt half way decent. On the way in I Ran the last quarter of each mile as fast as I could and they were in the sub 7:25 range, not my best but a lot better than I have been...  My average pace was 8:41 with a total time of 53:18 , lots of positives on todays run.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past Mini Gu and then half way up to Gu Corner and then back to the house via canal road. I felt pretty good again today and pace was quicker like it was on Thursday so that was a nice surprise. The plan is to add a mile each week to my Saturday long run until I get up to 10 or 11 miles and then just hold it there for a while, I don't want to go to far to soon and injure myself. My average pace was 8:35 with a total time of 1:01:02, that was a perfect time as my goal today was to run just over 60 minutes and I was able to do it.

See ya tomorrow.
