First run of the week. I ran out to Mini GU this Morning and then back to the house all via canal road, I felt pretty good but for some reason on the way back my pace slowed but I still felt okay. My average pace was 8:28 with a total time of 51:24, I tried out some new shoes the Nimbus 17 and they felt pretty good. They seem a little smaller but are super light, all in all a pretty good ride. I need to have a better week of training this week, last week was a joke.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran after work and I ran the Payson Park Loop and went all the way to the park, it was a little cold but tolerable. I felt pretty good for the most part, my average pace was 8:28 with a total time of 1:00:39, I felt pretty darn good and I feel like I am in a good place right now with my running and I hope it can stay that way. I finished up with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups, I haven't done that in a while and I would like to get back in the habit of doing it.

See ya tomorrow.

Early afternoon run and it turned out to be a pretty nice afternoon so I ran out past Mini Gu corner and then back to the house via canal road, I didn't feel real great starting out but then on the way back I started to get in to a pretty good rythumn. My average pace was 8:34 with a total time of 52:09, it was a litte breezy but I still felt okay on the way back and that is a good sign.

 see ya tomorrow.

I ran out to Gu Corner and then down into the river bottoms to my 5 mile mark and then I ran back to the house the same way all via Canal road. After getting back to the house I was feeling pretty good so I ran out to the old barn on canal road which is a 2 mile loop, those last two miles were in the 8 minute range so I am counting them as MP miles. I felt stronger towards the end which is a really good sign and I feel like I am getting stronger each run so that is a really good sign as well. My average pace was 8:24 with a total time of 1:41:53, I ran into my Bother Curtis and his son Bryan and I ran about a mile with my him so it was a fun day.

See ya Monday
