I avoided the smog to give my lungs a break. It was a treadmill morning. I ran a progression run, just to get some turnover back without pushing the effort too hard. I started at 8.0 mph and increased every .5 miles. I ended at 10.0, but upped the speed more frequently over the last mile.
To keep myself from getting too bored, I did the 15 song challenge. The goal was to see how far I could run in 15 songs. I hit the 15th song at 8.8 miles, so I just finished at 9. Sometimes I up my pace at the end of every song, but today I just did it every half mile. The things we come up with to keep our minds occupied on the treadmill. Average pace for 9 miles: 6:49
