Ran back and forth on the JW Marriott path with Craig.  Gorgeous day in paradise.  Read the entire Hansons half marathon method yesterday.  I really like the philosophy and will try to implement. Tried to make this run truly easy. AP 9:26

Took another recovery day after vacation. Ran 5 easy neighborhood loop.  Still loving my new green Garmin:)   Will do speed work tomorrow.  

AP 8:42

I call todays run the 'double-bob-dandilion-hop-overgrown-grassy-field-hill-repeat-playground-obstacle' workout.

Running with 2 wild boys makes things interesting.  Im actually shocked that I got 6 miles in!

I did a warm up pushing the bob around my old neighborhood.  I did 12 repeats of the Hickory Grove field/hill--having to do high knees over the dandilion field then tried to sprint up the hill.  The distance per repeat was about .08.  I didn't really track my time. Then I did a recovery loop around the playground, down the hill and back across the field.  

Cooled down playing tag with the boys on the playground :)

Did the tempo/pace run today.  Neighbor hood loop/Walther out and back. Set my virtual pacer to 7:15 and it kept me on track--I averaged 7:17 for the 5 miles.  Felt awesome today.  Running at that pace with some good music creates a perfect storm, aka runners high.  :) 

Ran to Mary's and back.  Beautiful, beautiful day.  Great company with @marymary and @khumba.  Both our Garmins died halfway through the run. Guessing our pace was low-mid 9's.
