3 miles on the treadmill- about 6.3 mph/ 9:30 pace. Not a hard run, but I just really don't like running on the treadmill.  I need to remember this when I'm tempted to shut off my early morning alarm! At least I still ran- I usually don't do this if I've slept in.

10 miles through bloomington hills & the mayors loop. Ave pace 9:38.  Kinda boring to go that far alone. But I felt pretty good the whole time and the weather wasn't too cold. I need to get my speed/cardio fitness back so I can join my friends on the long runs. But I guess that is pretty good considering baby turns 3 months tomorrow. Now I just need to focus on my nutrition so I can still nurse. 

Lost one of my brand new running gloves :(

5.5 mile bloominton Loop with Lesa - 2 minutes faster than I ran this last week.  About a 8:45 pace & I felt pretty good. Slowly, but surely my conditioning is improving - still have a ways to go to be where I was before the pregnancy.  My left knee and hip are a little tight - I will do some yoga and extra stretching this weekend.
