Found a fun little loop today. Nice hills, good up and down run.

Struggled through a tempo run today. Motivation was not high, but it picked up as I got running. The tempo run itself was ok, the time for 3 miles was about 18:20 or something like that. That wasn't my goal time, but I wasn't mad about it. I was glad I at least got out there and did it, and there were definitely some hills involved, as well as a headwind for the last half of it. Call it excuses, I'm just going to call it the conditions, and adjust my expectations accordingly haha

Wow! It was so cold today! Ran the campus loop with Sam, and then tacked on an extra mile. Sam and I had a good converstation about the book King Leopold's Ghost, and also on the importance of history. Later that night we had a little presentation that we were going to give to a little club thing, but only 3 people came (cousin Jake and Boochy were too of them haha). So my dream of inspiring people to read a good book and learn from it didn't come true. Maybe I should start a book club, or join one or something. It was a good converstation though, and I just gotta say, I'm glad I like to read. I think it's important to do and critical to be as informed as we possibly can about the world we live in, and history is a big part of that.

So not a lot of mileage today, but it was cool mileage!! I was part of a study testing the efficiency of 6 different shoes that had varying stiffness to them. I got to wear a mask that measured my oxygen consumption, and was running on a treadmill that had force plates in it and stuff. I kinda felt like the Drago from Rocky 4, so that was cool. This week I just ran at 9 minute pace, but I'll do it again next week and run at 6 minute pace.
