It was a little longer than I planned for. I ran with Alex and we averaged a 7:05 pace. This run felt good. My breathing felt controlled and steady and my legs felt relaxed. Followed with 8 min of core.

I wanted to run a mile just to see what I could do. 1 mile warm up 1 mile cool down. I ran a 5:03. 2:30 through 800. I was trying so hard to pick it up the second half but it just wasn't there. It was fun though.

With Isaiah, and Joe Benson and his dad. It was actually not too hard of a run because the pace wasn't too hot (7:40 avg) but definitely further than I should have ran.

With Branson, 7:32 pace. This run was alright, it wasn't overly difficult but it felt hard to get into a rythmn and my breathing felt off today.  8 min of core afterwards.

Ran solo today, 7:08 pace, this one at least felt better than yesterday did, but my breathing still felt a little off. The last 2 working nights I have done the dishes there and I think some of the strong chemicals have been affecting my throat and breathing a bit (I have asthma) so I will see if I can rearrange my duties at work.

Today didn't feel the best on my legs or lungs. I did some strides after to open up more and that felt good. Followed with 8 min of core. I did talk to my boss so the dishes shouldn't be a problem anymore. 7:02 pace avg

With Branson, it felt a little pushed so I was surprised that our avg mile was only a 7:50. I have been feeling a bit off so I am going to the doctor on Monday.

No run today or Saturday. I have a sinus infection but got some medication for it so I should start feeling better in a few days.

This was with Braden and Asa. I did it wrong on my watch and cut it into two runs, so I think combined our average pace for the whole run was around 7:25-7:30 pace. Defnitely feeling better from last week.

8:27 average pace. I wasn't paying much attention to the pace, was just running with a heart rate monitor and wanted ot keep it around a 150. It felt very slow haha. I want to get a new watch with a heart rate monitor but I need to study more to find out what heart rates I want to be at for different types of runs.
