Showed up at Sasha's house at 6:30, did 4 miles with him. Nick joined for the last little bit of my run and continued with Sasha. Pace was pretty easy, 34:xx for the run.

So I'm having trouble getting motivated to get up and out the door every morning, so here's what I'm doing to get myself jump started. Every day from tomorrow to next Saturday that I don't run (excluding Sunday), I'll donate $100 to the blog. Barring injury or illness. Hopefully this will give me more incentive to get my training done.

The threat of paying $100 worked, and I got my run in around 11:30 tonight. I ran a slightly quicker pace, somewhere around 7:30s.
