I'm a roller coaster right now. Some runs are just horrible and some are great. Today's was pretty dang good. Looped out into the fields and then Stone Cliff and back through B-hills. I started with a 7:50 mile to warm up then everything else was sub 7 min. I wasn't trying to go into tempo gear just to run smooth and easy. In fact around mile 3 I felt a little tired and thought I was working too hard for 7:20 pace... I looked at the garmin and was at 6:15 pace. No wonder. So just tried to relax and slow down but the pace never really got slower than 6:40 the rest of the run.

Hit the run with a 6:46 avg or 9.85 miles in 1:06

6.5 miles tonight around my hood mapping out a mile repeat course. Saved the life of two little dogs from a speeding truck. Yeah I'm a hero.

Nice run! I beat myself up running a 6:54 pace for 3 miles. I need to drop 10 pounds and about 15 years LOL
