Doing What I Can

Today's run was supposed to be a run-of-the-mill 6 miler, but i felt really good and put the hammer down after the 1st mile. kept it at GMP for 2miles and actually hit tempo pace for 1. I dunno what got in to me but those middle miles felt awesome! Splits:

1- 7:32.2

2- 6:54.0 (14:26, 7:13 avg pace)

3- 6:49.5

4- 6:23.9 (27:39, 6:55 avg)

5- 7:18.5

6- 7:20.4

TOTAL-- 42:18, 7:03 avg pace

Man it felt good to open it up today. Those MP and Tempo miles felt super easy too, i just noticed a slight increase in effort, but it felt like a glide.

6 easy ones, cept i was really tight the whole way and didnt really have much energy today. 45:27 total, 7:34.5 avg pace. It was cold too. This winter sucks!

4 mile tempo today. was shooting for 6:10 avg pace and hit exactly that. Although i felt a little tight with the 0 degree windchill. Definitely makes running fast hard.

1- 6:06.6

2- 6:11.7 (12:18, 6:09 avg)

3- 6:12.4

4- 6:09.2

TOTAL-- 24:39.9, technically 24:40, or 6:10 avg pace.

6 miles today. Forgot my watch so just ran by feel. It was actually kind of nice to get away from time constraints. I found it a very liberating feeling to not be held down by splits. might run sans watch more often!

3 sluggish miles as per the norm when I run 15 min after I wake up. At least the pace was nice and easy to allow for recovery, 7:51 avg, 23:23 total.

Long run today. Weather was nice. around 30 degrees and calm. Felt pretty good.

1- 7:20.9

2- 7:11.6 (14:32, 7:16 pace)

3- 7:11.6

4- 7:02.8

5- 7:09.6 (35:56, 7:11 pace)

6- 7:21.8

7 & 8- 14:50, 7:25 avg

9- 7:16.9

10-7:19.4

TOTAL-- 1:12:44, 7:16.5 avg pace

Good run today, im satisfied with it.
