Up early and it was hard! Amazing what a few days of sleeping in will do to a person. Hills were on the plan for today and I was planning on running the same route as before - my Parkway Palasades simulation but with a different approach. I was going for an even effort of moderate pace. I warmed up for 2 miles and then started for my 5 repeats (funny thing is, I had to come back so it ended up being 6). I felt good the entire time but on the last out I could tell I was getting tired and the legs were fatigued. On the last trip back, I had to stop at 3 different times because I was in desperate need of a POP. Drives me craizy!! Ended up not cooling down for a mile and went home to take care of my issue. This was much better than two weeks ago and my pace was about the same. Avg Pace 8:39
On the very first out I saw three deer in the field...Crazy! They stood and stared at me while I did the same right back. I started thinking about all the live wildlife I have encountered in the past 18 mos..... 1 snake multiple frogs bunnies daily
lizards daily
2 opossums 3 armadillos 3 deer 1 coyote I live in the city but on the edge and to the west are open fields for a couple of miles to the lake and I amazed at what we have seen.
