A clydesdale no more!

Another very windy run.  Ran north on the LPT.  Haven't been that directioin in a while so it was a nice change.  Legs felt a little tight and my groin was especially sore. 

Another windy run.  Put in a decent effort.  Nothing spectacular.  Form felt a little strange and out of synch.

Hilly run to Bountiful Blvd.  Had the mindset of pushing hard but the body didn't agree.  It is a hard run regardless of the effort but I didn't push as hard as I should have.  I could definitely feel my extra weight this morning.

Just your basic run of the mill general aerobic run.  Yet another windy day.  Really getting tired of running in the wind.  Temperatures are great so maybe I should just enjoy being outside.  My legs are a little sore and felt heavy. 

Boston Bib #2670.  Was hoping I could sneak into corral 2.

I'm not going to complain about the wind because I didn't have to race in it like many did today.  It is much easier to tolerate when it is just a training run.  Headed to the LPT again.  Am starting to like it a little more.  I was very bored with it for a while but I now prefer it over running through town.  Started into the wind so I could finish running with the wind.  Pace was around 7:50/mile into the wind and it felt comfortable.  Turned around at Rose Park golf course and enjoyed the wind at my back.  At mile 11 I decided to break up the monotony of the run and alternate fast and slow miles.  Ran 6:34, 7:30, 6:30, 7:20, 6:23 for the next 5 miles and finished with 2 easy miles.  There was probably no physiological benefit in me doing that but it felt good.
