Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured

6 easy miles with Wendy and Ashley.  Same route as Saturday and my legs were tired....not being in shape is not fun.

Early morning with Wendy, Ashley and Megan on the usual course through the Colonial.    Megan announced that she is moving back to Colorado, so she will be missed.  Run was better than Monday, but still to dang hard. Avg Pace 8:37
 

We all opted to sleep in this morning and Wendy and I ran after work.   It was nice and toasty, preparing us for a long, hot summer.   From the office, down the hill to Hulen, on the trail towards foster park and back.  Up the hill for the last mile really stunk.  Avg Pace 8:47

6 miles early with Ashley and Wendy.  My legs felt the past several days.  Avg Pace 8:35
 

First long run in months...Since March 1st and I felt it, big time.  Wendy and I are contemplating running the Deseret News Marathon...she wants to BQ and just needs a summer marathon, I need to get back into shape and with work and volleyball, this is about the only marathon I can run.  So we mapped out a run that would give us some hills and down hill...and it was hard and I am out of shape.   Up Lancaster/Camp Bowie/Crestline to RiverCrest, down Hidden Road, the Trail, up Bailey to UNT and then up 7th to Hillcrest and back down Crestline/Camp Bowie/Lancaster.   I am not sure if everyone else thought it was as hard as I did, but my legs were tired.   The plan was for 12, but I had to stop at the store and be done, due to a work commitment.  

Splits:  9:19, 8:39, 8:27, 8:19, 8;20, 8:34, 8:30, 8:51 (I think this is up 7th) 8:24, 8:10, 8:27

Avg Pace: 8:33
