Treadmill run, air quality has been awful this week. And the worst part is the forecast keeps saying that the next day will be in the green, and then it gets there and is at like 90 for AQI. About a mile at 12 degrees incline at 7-8 mph.

Ran to the track and did 6 400s, was going to do 8 but I ran out of time. First was a 76 and the rest were 71-73. They were pretty tough. Had trouble breathing by the time I got home.

A little over 10 at Battelle Darby. Felt great. Did a few hard hill efforts at the end. Really beautiful day. I need to get out here more often. Having a baby has really changed my perspective and understanding on the importance of sleep, I need to get better at averaging at least 7 hours per night. I got 9 hours today and I think that's a big reason for feeling good on my run.

Also the other runs this week were on Wednesday and Thursday, not Thursday a d Friday... I'm too lazy to fix that rn.
