10 miles on tm in 1:09:15. I felt really relaxed during this run, and I felt like my form was really good.I did the last mile in 5:45. I was surprised at how comfortable I felt after having run 9 miles and doing the last mile that fast (that is fast for me).

I figure this is my last week on the treadmills. I had better start running outside so I can start training with some wind resistance and elevation changes.

Avg pace 6:56

11 miles on tm at 1.0% incline. I wanted to do a speed workout today but I just wasn't feeling it. I tried for a little bit, but it didn't take long to realize that a speed workout would drain my energy really fast.

Even though I wasn't feeling it, I still finished in 1:16:05, an avg pace of 6:55. Hopefully I can keep this up when I get back out on the roads. next week.

12 miles on tm at 1.0% incline. I have felt absolutely beat the last 2 runs. I avg 6:58 today, but It felt like a death march from about mile 3 on. Perhaps I need to take a nap and do some easy runs the next few days and not push the pace at all.

10 miles on tm at 1.0% incline. I took this nice and easy at about an 8.2-8.3 mph pace. Tomorrow will be an easy paced run as well, maybe slower than today's. I just feel crappy.

9 miles on tm at 1.0% incline. I averaged about a 7:27 pace. I dont know if it is my lack of sleep, my poor diet, or if I have gotten sick of running on the treadmills, but my runs this week have been death marches from the start. Hopefully I can take my test early tomorrow and go running outside for the first time this year.

14 miles on tm at 1.0% incline in 1:37:34, avg pace of 6:59. This was the only run all week that I didn't want to quit 3 or 4 miles in. I started out at 8.2 mph and increased my speed by 0.1 mph every 1.5 miles.

I was wanting to do this run outside after my test and before work. I got done with my test at 3:30 and start work at 6;00, just enough time to squeeze in a run, shower, and head to work. But my brother-in-law wanted to play Madden. It is hard to pass up Madden, so I didn't. We played 3 games, and I had to run to work to make it on time (dang overtime).
