Decide--Commit--Succeed

I really wish they would leave the time change alone. I would much rather have day light savings time year round. I am usually home from work around 4 pm , which gives me about an hour and some change of running in the daylight. I don't know how you guys run early in the morn when it's still dark. To spooky for me.

My leg felt good before the run today, but is very sore at the moment I am bloging this. I have having some discomfort in my hip also. I hope something new is not going on, we will see how it feels tomorrow. My legs felt real wack today not alot of get up and go. I just feel really tired. I need to get more sleep, up at 3:30 every morn for work takes it's toll over a week. My total time today for the run was 54:12.

The first 4 miles were mostly a downhill grade, the last mile came up senic drive all uphill and my pace was faster. Go figure. I also did some weight strenghtening on my core for about 25 min.  See ya tomorrow.

My legs today felt very much like bricks. So it was a very slow run today needless to say. My hamstring did get sore the last mile and my back is bothering me a little. I will have to keep an eye on that. I did my 5 mile loop out to gu corner and back it was a great eve for a run. My total time was 55:52. No weight's today my Daughter Haylie and two grandkids are here for a week. It's hard to get down in the weight room were they are staying. so I will pick them up again next week.

All day today my attitude towards running was not very good. I'm tired of the hamstring injury,and now my back is startimg to bother me. so my first mile was not the fun I was hoping for. Mile 2 I was sick of my attitude and told myself to stop feeling sorry for myself and kcik it in the butt. From that piont on I had a one of my better runs than I have had for a while. That's why I like running so much because it is alot like life, so many times we are to easy at blamming other's for our struggles and challenges. When the real problem is our attitude. We are the ones that can choose to make our day great or sour. I loved my run today and it was awesome to be able to injoy this wonderful fall weather. My total time for the 5 miles was 50:12.

Today I decided to try a different approch to my run. My hamstring and back recovered fairly well from last night's run. Hardley any discomfort at all during the day today. I did no stretching during the day today or any before my run. I went out cold, at my 2.5 mile mark I was streching, and yesterday my hamstring and back would tighten up for the rest of the run. So today I kept on with the run and only did some stretching after I was done. I had more energy for the whole run and no tightening of the hamstring or back. Today I felt really good, had lots of energy in both legs and felt like I had good rythum. Yesterday my discomfort level during the run was around a 4 or 5, today much better more like a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10. My toal time today was 48:46, I wanted to have one run this week below 50:00 for a 5 miler. So I feel good about today's run. Average pace was 9:32.
