6:47, 6:42, 6:36, 6:33, 6:35, 6:22 (6:35 Avg. HR 169)
30' up/30' down. Covered just over 6 miles (6.07). About 8-9 seconds faster than last week and kept it below 170 avg HR. Felt pretty good. Legs started to stop firing in the last mile. Left leg does that sometimes. Could have run 5-10 seconds faster on the last mile I think. I feel less wiped out throughout the afternoon than last week.

20 x 1' on/off
20' warmup, 2 mile cool down, which was a bit too fast at 7:20ish and 6:50ish, but I just felt like spinning the wheels as I felt decent after the workout. The weather felt very nice, if a bit windy (about 53 degrees with a bit of sun. During the workout I felt smooth and fast, even if the paces didn't end up reflecting that. |

Ran a little bit on the kiddie trails around Spencer Park. I cannot get the correct direction on these and the arrows aren't much help as I cannot tell if the blues are all the same color or some slightly different shade. Colors plus words would make for more universal usability.
Gave a tree company a pretty wide berth by running on the lawn of an apartment complex and still almost got tagged by flying tree debris.
"Debris" is a weird word.

| AM: 8 miles, averaged 8:05. HR 152. Did some strides.
Felt sluggish in the legs, which isn't bad considering I have felt pretty darn good lately. Strides felt good.
First run in the Escalantes, which I like quite well. Should be better for faster running than my other Altras. I paid pretty much full price, which I wasn't happy about. I have become the guy who won't buy them until they are online for $50 or under, as I did with my other new pair.

Drove to campus so I could run a few hills. Still only managed 500 feet, but that's about 50%-70% of what a typical week looks like for this area. It was rainining, cold, and very windy at times, but I had an absolute blast.
Did a campus loop (which really isn't fully loop shaped) and did a loop using the library hill that ended up being 1.25 miles total and I did 3 of those with a 4th library hill climb before going back down to the car. It was nice to run some varying terrain.
I'll try to do this once every week or two weeks I think.
