I ran the Payson park loop and extended all the way to the park, I felt really good and my last 4 miles were sub 8:15 mile which is pretty good for this old man with no talent. My average pace was 8:21 with a total time of 1:00:11, I had one MP mile at the end, 7:58, I finsihed up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. Last week was a bust as I had stomach issues, I hope that never happens again but I'm back on the horse so to speak.

See you tomorrow.
