This afternoon was perfect weather for running. Low 50's and a very slight breeze. My route today took me on my 8 mile run up around the golf course by way of power house road and down canal road to home. I was a little suprised by the way I felt today my legs had good energy after sat. long run. My average pace was 9:01, total time for run was 1:13:55.

Mile 1. 9:33  warm up

        2. 9:39

        3. 9:25  uphill for a few miles

        4. 9:15

        5. 8:48

        6. 8:17

        7. 8:56

        8. 8:31

So 4 miles around marathon pace. I also did 30 min of Bowflex on upper body and ended with 300 crunches.  One of my better workouts, I think.

Today the old legs are pretty wacked. So I slowed myself way down and did a true recu overy run.  I just did an out an back, which took me to C.B.S. (Clay B. Simmons) Mini Gu Corner and a little past, then turned around and headed for home. The best part about the run was the great weather. we have been lucky so far this week. Hopefully it will hold out. I also did 30 min of the bowflex on the upper body and 300 crunches. Catch ya later alligator.
