Nice workout tonight, got a 6:03 and a 6:05 mile in, mile easy, on, easy, on, c/d format, just wanted to get a gauge of what this pace felt like effort-wise and was pleasantly suprised at the 6:03, the 6:05 later actually felt tougher, kind of lost some fitness over the last few weeks with my illnesses, but am back to feeling pretty good and haven't lost an irrevocable amount of fitness

got out for an easy mile, then dropped into a tempo for a 5k, ended up running the 5k in around 18:50. 6:06, 5:58, 6:06 then 39-40 seconds. Felt pretty easy effort-wise, just dealt with some small hills and some headwind. Overall, just wanted to gauge where I was at given my recent weeks of reduced training due to illness. Cooled down for the rest, overall a good workout

perfect day for running--high 50s to almost 60, light ne breeze, hit 12.6 miles in 1:30:43, 7:12 avg pace, strides afterwards

felt pretty tough at the start, but loosened up towards the middle and end and after the GU at mile 7, overall been increasing lately and so it will feel good to take a day off tomorrow

good long run tonight, 7:06-7:12 pace avg for most of it, 1:44:xx for the run, did strides and ice bath afterwards--felt pretty good, had a few GMP miles on the way back which is uphill and that was nice to see, getting a lot stronger and I feel like I am getting into pretty good shape

A fast mile tonight to gauge what I could run a fast one in, 5:32 was the result--not terrible, tried for another one, but only got 800 meters in (3:02 for the split, so more of a tempo mile pace) but then had some stomach issues and had to get home quick. 6.5 total
