I had a really hard time wanting to run today. I slept in because I couldn't peel myself out of bed. Didn't run at lunch. So, tonight I told my wife I still needed to do something and she got me out. I chose a route I could cut short if I wanted or go longer if I felt good. Decided on the medium route after the first mile and decided to try and tempo/progress more or less blindly through it because it was getting too late to see my watch. I really had no idea how my pace was other than how I felt. Last couple miles I was a bit worried because I was breathing a little hard and didn't feel real comfortable. 1 - 7:38 warm up and really took a while to get moving 2 - 6:41 kind of a slight uphill but started feeling better 3 - 6:25 uphill and into the wind, I really just tried to keep the same speed as #2 4 - 6:05 a touch downhill 5 - 5:53 more or less flat 6 - 5:54 a little worried because this was work 7 - 6:41 cool down Overall 7.2/46:48/6:30 Bought Sox v. Orioles tickets today.
