Rec Runner

The treadmill tempo is back! Heat index was up to 110 today and I missed my morning run so figured I would hit a late night treadmill run to avoid massive dehydration. Treated a guy in clinic for really nasty heat exhaustion. After 2 miles easy starting at 7 min mile pace bumped speed up one tenth every half mile ending at sub 6. Averaged around 6:30 pace. This was my winter staple workout and I added 2 miles and felt really relaxed until the last 2 miles. Definately a lot stronger now. 

Meant for it to be pure recovery ended up going way to fast for true recovery not sure why just couldn't slow it down so I cut it short. Legs not sore from yesterday but body is fatigued some. 3 months until marathon time.

Apparently my trend is to wimp out and miss Wednesday runs but it is a good mid-week break. Huge rainstorm last night and this morning one town got 8 inches! Needless to say I didn't want to be a wet lightning rod and did another treadmill tempo. Hit a faster pace than Monday but only 6 miles of tempo. Felt really good definately feeling a lot more fitness 6:30's are pretty comfortable.

Anniversary today got in the miles early.
