A very nice and fun run! This 3M stuff is starting to become easier each time. Time was 26:21, 8:48avg (8:44, 8:38, 8:59) - weather was an refreshing 34degs, so not bad at all. Just having a great time here returning to my true love! (give me a break chris!)

I had only a 2M scheduled for today and I didn't want to get up at 5:15a just for that - so I postponed until this afternoon at lunch time. It was a little better, just different running when I can actually SEE everything - but good. I ran against my virtual runner and beat him silly (sorry James!) - but it wasn't fair because I put him at a 9:00 pace and I know that I would beat that on this course because of the downhill at mile 1 to about 1.5. Well...I must had been loosened up more that I am at 5:15a because my first mile was 8:34, and I knew it was only going to go quicker from there...and it did. The second mile was 7:49 for an 8:11 avg and 16:23 total time. My heart rate was only at 162 at the end, which is well within my "comfort" zone, so I wasn't pushing it - and it just felt good. But again, it is only 2 miles!

RunStrong everyone!

Nice and easy does it. Just a 3M nice and relaxed. Finished in 27:01 for a 9:00avg (9:27,8:34,8:57). I just had a good time out there, temp was only 37degs so it was comfortable.

It wasn't as easy - but it was fun. I just went to the college track and did my 2. When I ran before I would love to run a lap and do the stadium stairs - so I had to try it again today. I did the first mile just on the track - then went up (which is 4 ups and 4 downs) and that took awhile - but it was fun (an exhausting fun) - then just finished up on the track. The trick is ones you hit the track to get right back onto pace no matter how tired you are - well....I kinda did - but since it was my first attempt again, and I am still getting the body going - I allowed myself a little slack (just a little - I promise!)

RunStrong everyone!

Cool (26.6degs) morning. Ran 4M in 35:32 (8:52avg). It was tough because it seemed like the lungs did not want that cold air in them and as soon as I tried to breath it in, they threw it back out - so my muscles felt like they weren't getting the full amount of oxygen needed. But other than that it really was a good run - my pulse was still only at 162, very good and it was under a 9:00 pace. It's so good to be running again!
