Easy Progressive
Lunch: I will make these runs longer and harder throughout the month in this training cycle. Did an out and back on Texla Road(all flat). This is a popular road to run on since it is very wide shoulders like almost the same width as a real lane and its paved. Tons of wildlife I saw today. All kinds of fowl, dogs, Donkey's, turtles, a fox. Nice temp with some good humidity. Today's weather is probably the same forecast for Saturday with the same wind so it was a good test focus on this. I am logging my splits only to see if I can make this run better by pushing myself longer and faster. I will also need to do courses that are rolling hills duriing this workout. I feel very good and looking forward to getting back in great shape.

I passed a guy at about mile 8 on my run today that was on the opposite side of the road of me. He looked like he was on a comfortable stroll. Probably younger 24-26 age. As I passed him I said "looking good brotha" (typical thing I say to people word, makeithappen, peace, solid, etc)
His response to me... "Jesus loves you!" I just smiled and said to myself "yep, I'm in the Deep South. Gotta love southern hospitality. I enjoyed the comment. Not a bad motivational pass by line after all. :)
