Felt pretty ginger this morning and couldn't really get it going. Add another 8 or so tonight.

PM- 7 miles, 3 at 6-6:15 pace. Felt great tonight! Sharp contrast from this morning.

12 at an easy pace. Ate too much too close to the run so miles 3-5 were a bit rough with some stomach issues but after that felt great.

Did 20 this morning with Clyde. Fathers and Sons tonight with my 3 boys so had to do the long run today. Started at convention center and went up sunland dr to river rd then up into bloomington hills. Ran around the golf course a bit then over to the trail and down to man o war bridge. Did the loop around bloomington then back to convention center. It was only 18 so we continued up to riverside then over to the trail and back down to make it an even 20. Felt really good the whole way with spring in my step all the way to about 19 so I am glad I only went 20 and that they were quality miles. Averaged about 7:21 pace.

Easy 3 miles easy pace through some neighborhoods below the mall. Hit Mall Dr and picked up the pace to about 7 min/mile. Then couldnt resist and hit a couple of 6:00 miles at the end. Felt slow warming up but was able to overcome to end strong.
