6:43 average, my bowels were not happy today.. I felt some aching around my knees, but nothing major. It was in the single digits this morning, and I felt like I was running much faster than I actually was

I woke up a little stiff and tight from skiing last night and was going to take it nice and easy, but I can't seem to run slow by myself. My legs honestly felt fine once I got going. 6:47 average

It was another morning of not getting my bowels to cooperate. My legs still seemed a little tired, but that wasn't really slowing me down. It was another cool morning. 6:38 average. I'm wondering if the saltines I ate yesterday impacted my bowels today.. We'll see I guess.

The outside of my right foot at the ball (right below where the toe connects) felt pretty tender today. This may be a result of the shoes I've been wearing this week, as they are worn out right there. It also could be because my current trainers are beginning to get worn down right there.

My bowels played games on me today. I stopped at the porta potty to realize I didn't actually have to go, which was a kind of nice relief, but I was still stopped way longer than I would have liked. 6:36 average. The outside of my right foot almost feels bruised today, I think the shoes were a big factor.

Road conditions weren't ideal, so I didn't necessarily try to run fast. As a result I ran 6:55s, which was probably exactly what my body needed anyways. I stopped and pooped, but really got it all out after I was done with the run.

I decided to stay in bed an extra hour and that made a big difference. I felt great getting out the door, and could tell it was going to be a good run when my first mile was a 6:25 with some uphill. I basically just let things keep rolling and got down to 6 flat pace by the time I was five miles in. I did stop and poop, but it was well needed and saved the rest of the run. Once I got to the long uphill in Smithfield I was really going and was able to really grind those hills, which didn't slow me down much. I then was able to put together around 5:40s for miles 12-15, then I ran 6:10ish for the final last bit of the run. 6:03 average. Definitely one of my best runs ever.
