10 easy miles. Instead of the normal super slow easy pace, I did something aroung 6:50 pace. Not bad considering the hot windy weather. Also, woke up with sore legs, arms and back. That's what happens when you run and play frisbee for 4 hours.

10 easy miles in the morning. Mostly in the 7:15-7:30 pace range.

I think that I need to try to get my easy runs in the 6:45-7:15 pace range. In the past I tried to do them all at about 6:30, but I wore myself out and couldn't put in good speedwork. Recently I think I have been closer to 8:00, sometimes faster, probably slower sometimes, usually out of laziness rather then necessity. I think I feel better after the slightly faster runs.

 

PM: Added 5 more miles

AM: Was supposed to get up and do my weekly tempo run. Decided to stay in bed until Jonah woke up, which usually happens about the time I up going to get up anyway. He didn't wake up, so I ended up squeezing in 4 miles.

 

PM: Did the rest of my run. 2 mile warmup then 4 mile tempo run on the track. 22:47 (5:33, 5:38, 5:50, 5:47). Clearly did the dirst mile too fast which hurt me later. Wanted to quit after 2 miles, but convinced myself to do one more quarter 4 times. Then figured I could hang on for one more mile. Actually managed to increase the pace slightly after the mid-run slowdown. I think that this is the fastest tempo run that I have done on the track.

10 easy miles in the morning probably around 7:00-7:15 pace. I might have to break out the Garmin for more of my runs so that I can actually know how fast I am going. The problem is that if I know, I usually end up pushing the pace too hard.

AM: slept in and only had time for 4 miles

PM: 7 miles with 6x800 on track. 90 degrees with 20-25 MPH crosswinds. Originally wanted to try to do a sub-5 mile. When I hit 800 in 2:32 decided to quit before I ruined my workout. Times 2:32, 2:43, 2:40, 2:38, 2:41, 2:45. Was going to quit at four, but felt good at the end of a cooldown lap so I did a couple more. Pretty good showing considering the conditions.

I have stooped to a new low. I actually got up this morning at 4:45 to go running in the rain. I had to be to work an hour earlier than usual, so I had to start running an hour earlier also.

Decided to sleep in rather than do the planned 20 miler.
