Mini workout this morning. 

2.5 mile warm up in to B-hills

1 mile at LT pace in 4:57

4 min recovery or .3 and a little walking

1 mile at LT pace in 4:54

A little over a mile and a half cool down back home. 

I've just felt like junk all week and needed to just see if the legs could even still function at a faster pace. The workout wasn't long enough to tell me any good indicator of fitness but at least I can get out of the hole. Hope to feel better in the few short weeks before STG.

10 miles at Club tonight. Aaron, Steve and I. The cooler temps help. 6:35 avg and we all had jacked up stomachs with potty stops. Even with the stops the legs felt better than they have been. Best club run for me in a long while.

Keep positive my friend! It seems that every year for me I get to feeling crappy after a long summer of running. I am so glad that it is about over, lost the motivation somewhat myself. I am getting it back a little now that it is getting close and the light at the end of the tunnel is starting to shine. You will do awesome as you always do.

I only wish I could have one of your crappy marathons.....you are a great runner and even though you may get bummed out at times you run faster than most people in the country!
