Clyde's Comeback!

DC loop extended around Little Valley. It was warmer this morning because of the cloud cover. 33 F but once the sun came up the clouds kept it out so it never really warmed or will warm throughout the day. I didn't take a watch but the pace felt pretty slow. Just having a hard time getting anything going lately. Somewhere along the line I need to start doing some speed workouts but right now the legs seem to be too heavy. 

Did the DC/ Man-o-war bridge loop but in reverse. Slow going at first but once I was warmed up around 4 miles in things started to click. Ended up around a 6:55 avg for the run. Best run in a week or so. Nothing amazing but it was nice to run without feeling like the legs were 3,000 lbs each. 

Logan and Dave came over early this morning and the three of us hit up the standard DC loop. Other than a short little detour over to the golf course potty for me. Kind of chilly and frosty all over this morning but after we got going I felt pretty good. 7:08 avg for the run. 

Woke up at 5 and turned the alarm off that was set for 5:30. Then laid there til 6:30 and finally drug myself out of bed. For some reason it was a struggle getting up and out today. But once out I felt strong and complete for the first time in a few weeks. At least since pre Grand Canyon. I didn't have a lot of time for the run because Mik'L had a early morning meeting and I piddled away my time in bed. So I just did the middle B-hills loop and extended around Little Valley at the end. Got home just in time to get the wife out the door on time for her meeting and save myself an ear full later:)

P.M. Hit the same loop again in the same direction. Felt strong again. Didn't have a watch but kept it up tempo so I could get home to go to our company Christmas party. Got home and showered and was ready to roll in under 15 min's. Yeah I'm fast:)

Stone Cliff and then the DC loop. Felt so so when I started this morning with temps around 27 F. Hit the first mile in 7:53 and slowly got rolling. By mile 3 I was floating a long at 6:45 pace fairly effortlessly. Kept it smooth and ended with a 6:52 overall avg. 

Met up at the DC at 5:30 a.m for and early morning and chilly (24F) run. The circle of trust and Stephen. We wanted to run the new STG half course and see how she rolls out.
Did a couple while we waited for Logan to show then hit the half course. It sucks. Lots of hills up through B-hills and around the backside of Webb hill over to the freeway. Then we hit another river loop to push out a little over 20 for the day. All of us were trashed by the last lap but still managed to roll along at sub 6:40 pace. Ended up with a 7:03 avg for the run and we stared out very slow for about 4 or so.

Went to the ward Christmas party after. Myler sat on Santas lap for the first time. He wants a truck and a car and for Santa to make them green cause green means go! His words not mine.
