LM warmup (10 reps), 10.53 miles in 1:21:41, 7:45/mi, HR 146, w/ 3 mile warmup, 2 x Drills, 4 x Strides, 3 x 1 mile @ 5K effort w/ 3 min rest in 6:14 (up), 6:31 (up), 5:53 (down), 3 x 1 min on, 1 min off (5:56/mi - up, 6:13/mi - up, 5:20/mi - flat), 3+ mile cooldown.  PU/SU/Leg ladder (7/7/4) & stretching.

Cloudy and cool (52F).  Serious motivation problem today...just wasn't feeling it even after the 3 mile warmup where I couldn't even get below an 8 min/mi pace.  Part of the problem was likely the brush clearing I spent yesterday afternoon working on.  Unenthusiastic drills....almost bailed there but managed to chastise myself enough to begin the workout and stay in the present.  Repeats weren't anything to write home about but I got them done.  Right foot started hurting on the cooldown but seems fine afterwards.

Nice discipline as always there Dale in getting the workout done, drills and all. This will all payoff later I'm sure.
