Lunch: 8.4 miles on the treadmill, averaged 9:34. HR 150.

20 x 1'

Didn't want to chance getting caught in a thunderstorm so I went to the gym after class. These were supposed ot be around 6:30, but I know they would have been faster on the roads. On the treadmill I had to start at 8.5 and work my way down. Worked my way .1 faster every few repeats until I was running the last 5 intervals at something like 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 10.0. Might have been a little conservative in the beginning but it felt like I was flying. 

I was going to do weights as I had plenty of time now that Megan takes the boys all day on Wednesdays but I wanted to get my grocery shopping down and spend some time with them, which worked at as Megan needed to put out some fires at work.
