8 AM 30F cloudy and light breeze. I did the exact same run I did last week but I felt tired and it took me about 2 more minutes to finish this run compared to last week. Over all it wasn't too bad 7:54 pace is fine. The last 2-3 miles were a bit hard.

My usual run between the two campuses and then 2 loops on the east campus. Was feeling tired after the long run yesterday. It's a cut back week so I wasn't pushing myself.

Six miles on the treadmill. Within each mile I did a 0.2 mile on a 3-3.5% slope. It was a nice workout.

4 PM a storm. It was a light rain when I started but about 3-4 minutes into the run all hell broke loose. It was pouring so hard it felt like nail are been shot into my face. The wind was very strong. I did a U turn and barely returned to campus. As I approached the campus things got more bareable. So what I did was to loop around the main quad which is 0.5 mile loop. I did 4 of these in what seems to be a tempo speed but felt quite easy. I was completely wet so I was running through puddles without even bothering to try and pass in the shallow part. I got lots of weird looks. I cut the run short but it's my cut back week and I didn't want to get sick.

11:45 46F sunny and windy.I have a slight cold so I was rather slow today (8:00 average). It was a pleasant run and the weather was nice. I'm glad I did it. Need to rest well before my weekend long run.
