First - this was my 6th day straight - so I finally made it to that mark.

Second - the weather was incredible! I had to run later (around noonish) today and that was good. The weather for the run had an avg temp of 47.3 (quite warm for this time of year), so I got to wear shorts & a shirt. I guess it was the combination of the two because I had an awesome run for this point in my training. I went 3 out and 3 back on a trail heading out to Washington (love this trail). Total time was 49:54 for an 8:18avg and split out as follows: 8:26, 8:16, 8:22, 8:23, 8:17 and 8:06. And I felt great during and still do after. This honestly felt like the pace I was doing last week for the 8M, but it was a good 1-1.5min faster per mile?? anyway, I'm not knocking a good thing - just wondering why it felt so good and I'm not hurting.

RunStrong friends!

Great run! It felt good because you are working hard and it is paying off. You are quickly getting back to where you were a few years ago. Your body appears to remember how it was. Keep it up and run hard. Enjoy that great weather. Today is already 40 degrees, but there is a 40 mph wind and slush and ice everywhere. We can never be happy!
