AM: Jefferson High School (reverse + extended) - 9 miles, no watch

Might do something wild and crazy to mix things up and do a short run in the afternoon with strides + blasts. But maybe not. Don't want to get too carried away by deviating from my same three loops.

PM: North side - 4 miles, averaged 8:06. Did a few strides. Followed it up with 6 hill blasts, which I quite like. I also have a parallel hill that gives me the option to up the efforts to a .25+ mile (some day).

Options for the hills. Nice. Looks like a productive short pm run.

I'll probably do something like this twice a week, especially once I settle into my schedule. It's a good way to make 4+ miles do some good work without killing yourself.

Some sort of track workout in the morning with some speedies. I expect it to be very telling of my fitness, but Slow Joe must have shipped up some of that cleared out air because it is feeling mighty fine right now!

Seems logical.

Should be a fun workout with that clean air! It's amazing what that or the right temps will do to a workout.
