AM: Early morning Epic tread run since I had to take Katie and Matthew to the airport to catch a flight to Nashville. Ran 9 total with a 6 mile push at 5:30 pace. Felt a little sluggish since I got very little sleep with a 4:30 am wake up call and the increase in mileage. 1.5 miles WU and CD. 

PM: Ran 12 around Edmond since I had a break from class. Felt ok, legs a little tired still from the early run. Weather is awesome out though, its about 70 degrees outside and very little wind. Which anything below 15mph is considered a nice NON-windy day in the state of Oklahoma. On pace for the weekly PR of 140. Gearing up and hitting the mileage hard for the Little Rock Marathon which is about a month away now. Fitness feels good, and body weight seems to be maintaining were I want it to be on race day. Excited for some upcoming workouts.  

 PM again: Weather was to nice, couldnt resist running the cool down with the crew at the Rankin track in Edmond on my way home from school. Luckily had spare running clothes in my car as I drove by. Perfect night for another 4 more miles, legs actually felt even better afterwards! Now some serious grubbing time!
