Back home in Indiana and it was a beautiful morning around 60 degrees and clam.  I felt a little tired from the trip back yesterday and some jet lag.  I did an easy few miles to get warmed up and felt some better.  Then I did 12 x 1:00 with 1:00 recovery at around tempo pace (between 6:10 and 6:20).  The first couple I didn't feel the best but got better as I went along.  This was a good warm up for some more speed work that I will start over the next few weeks.  I would like to get a good 10k in this fall and focus on a faster half later in the fall.

Kory, thanks for the compliments and I'm surprised to see you online. That must be a good sign. I have been thinking of you a lot and will continue to pray for your recovery! As I was running this morning I was thinking God for being able to run and was praying that you will be out enjoying running again soon.
