I was very, very tired today. Last nights hard rain woke me up and then I realized I left the car windows down so I had to run out and quickly close things up...then the puppy had to go out and do his business a bit later. I made it through the workout but I was just plain tired.

wu: 1.50 miles (10:29) ran for 30 seconds hard and then easy for 30 seconds - 10 reps...sort of.  The 30 second distances I didn't want to figure out for distance, so I'm just doing an easy mile entry even though a bit of it wasn't so easy.

Well, I also decided to run in the pm!  I thought it would be dreadful and it was actually a lot easier than I had expected.  It was still quite warm, but my body was nice and warmed up from the day.  Went 3.21 miles and the last bit I ran with my 11 year old daughter. Here are the splits:  9:47, 9:47, 10:00, 10:27

Had a nice long run today.  I started running at 6:30am and the temperature was around 78 degrees with humidity of 84%.  I finished at around 9:30 and the temp was 82 degrees with the same humidity.  Needless to say my running clothes were rather drenched.  AP was 11:48.  Took a 45 second walk break every 4 minutes.  Here are the splits:  11:59, 12:23, 11:58, 12:11, 12:14, 11:55, 11:50, 11:17, 10:56, 11:13, 10:59, 11:22, 11:28, 11:39, 10:49

Have a good weekend
