Felt unusually tired today, so I ended up forgoing the 20-mile long run. Ran around the lake in Pflugerville. Did several mile pickups ranging from 5:00-5:20.

Did 10 miles in the morning with my dad - we had a two mile pickup in the middle. I was able to do the pickup in 9:59. It was pretty cold.

Did the usual 20-mile long run with 3 fast at the end. I was able to do the first fast mile in 5:01, but then things started to go wrong (loss of balance/spasm). The next mile was 5:43, and I finished in 16:34.

Did 9 in the morning, no interval. Got cold and soaked. I was feeling weird later in the day, and ended up skipping the second run.

Did 8x1 mile at the Pflugerville Soccer loop - alternating directions. The intervals were 5:18, 5:12, 4:57, 5:04, 4:53, 4:58, 4:59, and 4:51. The first two intervals I was waking up - hence the slower times. There was headwind and uphill on the even intervals - so I'm quite happy with the last one in 4:51. The rest was 600m.

Total of 12 miles.
