On my own today after and hour of trying to get myself out of bed. The first 4 miles were rough and I was struggling to keep moving. Work is work and just more stress than I want as well as lots going on at home with the kids and Jay's work. Finally about mile 4 I started feeling better. 9:13, 8:53, 8:42, 8:16, 8:37, 8:06, 7:48, Avg Pace 8:31 - Llano Springs, Risenger, Stone Meadow, Wildflower. PM: I have been wanting to add a mid-day run in a couple of times a week but have been pretty bad about following through. Today I accomplished it. I have a view from my office of this hill and I have been watching runners and cyclists on it for a year, so today was the day. It is .5 mile long and a 5% grade. I did 2 out and 2 back from my office which isn't so bad but it is 80 degrees and I am used to running in the dark. Dehydrated, hot and I should have taken it easier. Avg. pace 8:36.
