Today was a good running day. We ran a little over 4 miles for PT and then I came home and ran another mile to try and hit about 5miles a day this week. So far so good, but I found out that my sprinting ability is severely lacking right now! We did some wind sprints during the run and I had a hard time keeping up...

Good run today. About 2 miles were just a jog down to the 1 mile track and then we did some sprints on the track. 2x800m and 4x400m. My times were pretty good, I think I only got slower on one 400m. My first 800m was 3:03 and the second was 2:59. With the 400m's it went something like this 1:26   1:24   1:26   1:19. The rest was just a jog around an 8:00 pace there and back. 

 I am definitely slower on the sprints then I was before, but this was a good workout to get back into shape.

Well, today was the first day I have been out since Heather had baby Ryan. The run felt good, but there was a little rust and some cramps to knock off. Averaged a 7:47 pace though, not awful.

7:43   7:40   7:50   7:54   7:47
