Easy-medium 10 miler with last 4 at MP effort.  7th and 13th east out and back.  Felt tired and a little slow today, maybe from flipping my sleep schedule the other day.  Fun part is I get to do it all over again this weekend. Ugh..:(

Easy 3 miles today.   Sorry I haven't been around for a while, I didn't think anyone really read this blog too much anyway LOL!!    I just needed a break from things for a while especially since this last training cycle was really a huge struggle in the way of balancing work and school etc. Not to mention the fact that I'm getting older!   But.. such is life.  Looking back on this race I know I gave it everything I had and as such I have finally reached a verdict;  I'm ok with that..  Darkhorse out.

AM-A tough 10 miler steady and hard into the wind for the first 5 miles with the last 5 miles at 5:40-6:10/mile. 7th and CU out and back.   Really warm out, I could feel my ticker working overtime trying to keep up with both the demand of legs and the cooling system.  85-95% mhr.

PM-4 miles easy jogging during lunchtime while at work.  A little cooler but there was definitely a warm humid breeze coming off the lake.   If I can keep this regular I should be able to run decently at Des News this year all be it not super competively.   Good.. I like that idea.  No pressure that way and I can actually enjoy the process for once.

AM-6 miles on the TM at 6-5:20/min mile with 4 miles at 5:20 in the middle.  It just felt too good to not run fast today.  It's almost like someone put a new set of batteries in me or something I guess and I'm glad because for almost two weeks I felt like a walking corpse both mentally and physically.  Treadmill smelled like ozone afterwards and man you gotta love that smell, just like a bolt of dry lightening on a hot summer afternoon.  But you know I love running hard and fast some days and I don't know why exactly except that it's just the nature of the beast I suppose:)

PM-Easy jogging 8 miles this evening up on 13th east and back.   I was so hungry afterwards that I ate 3 giant size hot dogs upon arriving home.  Yeah I know dinner of champions right? But do you know they actually have a term now for someone who leans too obssesively on the healthy side of eating?   Interesting..
