Today's run was good again. I went a bit faster again and finished in 37:10. I am feeling pretty good at that pace, the last mile is always my fastest. Anyway, things feel good now.

Today was another great run. I ran at just under a 8:00 pace, 7:53. It felt really good. I was more excited about my heart rate. I averaged a 152 BPM with a max of 164. Not bad, I think the month that I took running slower (8:30+) paid off. I think I will go another month or so around a 7:30-7:00 pace and then slow it back down to around an 8:00 pace. We'll see.

Good run today. I felt a little worse, but maybe because I am upping the mileage a little bit.

A longer run today. Just haven't had a lot of motivation the last two days. We had a patrol that fell at a bad time and I was so tired! I just need to not be so lazy...oh well, it happens.
