Ran while Becca walked on a path near the apartment. Weather was perfect today, and I ended up running pretty fast- averaged 6:45 for the run. It felt really good up until the last mile, I started feeling a bit drained. Excited to see how fast I can get over the next year.

Warm up at planet fitness, I tried a couple pick ups but I really don't like their treadmills- they make my legs feel really heavy.

Ran south and found a large park. Felt pretty good.

Walked another 3 miles with Becca.

Warmed up half a mile and then did 4 quarter miles and a half mile at 5:00 pace, quarter mile at about 8:00 pace between each. I ran 74, 76, 73, 71, 2:33. Felt pretty good for the first 2 or 3, the quarter mile felt tough and then the last rep was tough. Not quite as fast on the half mile as I would have liked, but I had to make a couple tight turns during it so was still probably decent.

Additional 2 miles walking with Becca.
