I ran the Payson Park loop but I cut out the rollers, my legs were till kinda heavy like on Saturday but not as bad, I just gutted it out. It was pretty darn hot too! My average pace was slower than normal, 8:54 with a total time of 55:42, hence the dead legs... No more missed days unless it is a Friday that is usually a scheduled day off but even then I might do a little cross training.

See ya Tomorrow.

I drove to the top of woodland hills and then I ran down to the mailboxes over to Loafer Canyon road and then up that a little ways and then back down to the house, its a good combination of downhill and uphill. I felt okay but not great, my legs are a little tired but not to bad, I want to do this a few more times before I start running Payson Canyon in a few weeks. My average pace was 8:45 with a total time of 1:07:04, I had a few 8 minute miles on some of the downhill miles but for the most part I tried to just take it easy for the first time down.

See y tomorrow.

I ran the usual route down into the river bottoms and then back to the house, I did few loops around my house to get the 15 plus miles in. I needed to get out at least an hour earlier but I slept in and I really paid for it those last few miles. My average pace was not great but not to bad either, average was 8:53 with a total time of 1:56:29... My goal is to bump up the long run mileage each week, I did some downhill training on wednesday and It kept me from running for a few days because of the stiffness, I hope I'm done with that now too. I really need to be getting the mileage in from here on out.

See ya Monday
