  • 5.5 miles, 5th south loop in 50 minutes, 9:05 AP
  • abs with 2x1 min planks

Today was just a normal easy run, but I was able to go fast comparatively.  I feel like the crank in my legs and core is finally back...I love having a crank haha!

  • the last time I ran this loop was one month ago with 9:42 AP
  • the last time I ran this loop when there was snow on the ground, I had a big belly and my best AP was 10:26

needless to say, things are feeling gooooood :)

Way to go Brooke! Your running Ogden right? We are running about the same times right now....we should get together when the longer runs come!

Nice job on the run. I love it when things are feeling good and you can just cruise.

Coming back always feels GREAT! You are doing a great job Brooke! Toby would be a great training partner...wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
