Rollin' THUNDER

My training schedule said to run 3 miles, but I feel that if I want to reach my goals I need to put in a few more miles per week than what it is asking, so I did 6.

I wanted to run fairly fast today to get my heart rate high for a while. I feel like todays run went great. It was raining for most of the time, but I love running in the rain, so it was fun. It was around 60 degrees, and a little bit of wind. Fun run.

5.11 miles, left home at 10:30 pm. I normally would not have done this run, but for my next marathon I have extra motivation (at least I am calling it motivation to be positive, as of now I see it more as an obligation, hopefully that changes). I worked a long day and got home late, then didnt have the drive to go run, so I left late.

My run was supposed to be 6 miles, but I cut it to 5.11 because of a PWRNIT. I think this is my third, and by far the closest to a PIMP.

I started out slow and tired, but eventually got into the swing of things.

Overall this was a good run, ended too short, but I will make up for it on another day this week.

6.38 miles at 10:00 pm. I think this was the distance, my watch battery was dead, so I used map my run. I did a little bit of hill running. I ran the same 1.4 mile route 4 times. It has a big down hill that is about .3 miles long, then a steep uphill that is about .25 miles, then about .9 miles of gradual down hill.

This was an ok run. I really need to change my diet and the time of day that I run, I am really not liking this running past 10 pm thing.
