good run today, did the 2nd and 4th mile uptempo. 6:07 and 5:57 for those two, not bad for this altitude and given my sickness lately.

decent effort tonight, 9.3 in 1:08:59, 7:25 avg pace. Consciously kept it slower, did the hilly loop too, so it was nice to put a good run together

was rolling along through 12.6, probably around 7:20 pace, then had serious side stitches again - just like the other morning, had to stop running because I couldn't keep going. was still 1.5 from home so walked/jogged as I could the rest of the way back. Kind of disappointing, but nothing I can do. total running was 13.5 with the jogging parts. total pace was 7:27 for 13.5 but that is with a super slow last mile given the walk/jog. still a good 12.6 before everything fell apart.

started out with tempo today, GHMP, 6:30, 6:18, 6:18, 6:10, 25:18, 6:19.5 avg pace for the four uptempo miles. not bad for altitude, had some GI issues otherwise could have gone further

broke out the old red shoes today - didn't know how the trails would be after the 21 inches of snow we got yesterday - turns out they weren't too bad. 8.5 total at 7:23 avg pace, was probably overdressed as the sun came out during my run and drove the temp up to the high 40s

good run tonight, felt really good for 15, actually started feeling really easy. first four had a sideache - probably too hydrated. settled in after 4 and hit a good pace, started rolling at 7:18-7:22 and ended with 7:19 avg pace for 1:49:xx for the 15 miles, strides after

uptempo today, tried to run at decent GHMP for this altitude which i assume is near 6:30, i stuck that pace out for 6 miles - I ran my 6 in 38:44, 6:27.5 avg pace, not bad for 5300 feet, cooled down 3.6 for a total of 9.6 - total avg pace was 6:49 for the day
