12.25	0.00	0.00	0.00	12.25

AM: Chestnut Hill College hill loop - 8.25 miles, averaged 8:09

I've done a few adjustments to this loop since early July and I think I like this one the best. It's just over 700 feet of gain. Felt good today.

PM: Sprinngside Track - 4 miles, averaged 7:49. Did 6 x 200 strides in ~38 seconds. Cut down from 41 seconds (~3k pace) to 34 seconds.

Legs felt tired but good today but the normal tired where if you ask them to move, they move (but you really don't feel like asking them to move).

Altra The One Miles: 4.00	Kinvara 5 Miles: 8.25

You painted a perfect picture of what your legs felt like. one that only runners would understand.

That's a lot of gain on that loop. I need to find one like that. Oh, wait..
