My second day out after being sick.  It was hard to get myself out the door.  I wanted to be a bum.  But, I went anyway.  First mile was nice and easy.  My plan was to take it easy again.  Well, after about a mile and a half, and older man ran by me going sub 9 miles and I thought I'd pick it up a bit.  Then a bit later, a woman around my age passed by and of course the competitor in me kicked in.  I stayed with her for a bit until she turned off and so, I just kept the pace up and finished my run.  Felt good.  Here are the splits:  11:05, 9:05, 9:17, 9:29, 9:33, 9:44 (for .87m).  AP 9:42

Yep, the distance is correct.  I got up.  Was very tired.  Got dressed and out the door to run.  Ran for .17 miles and said forget it.  I went home and plopped.  Hopefully tomorrow will be a more energy filled day.

MUCH better morning.  I actually got out the door at 5:30am and it was nice outside.  Splits:  10:40, 9:42, 9:40, 9:15, 9:35, 10:00, 9:41, 8:54 (last .12m)  AP was 9:47.  We're off to do some camping and fishing for the next several days in the mountains.  Will try to do some runs at 7000 feet!  Nice change for me.
