AM before work - did a solid 15 minutes of core, pushups, and curls with weights and what not. I am weak-sauce in the upper body regions.
8 x 0.5 miles in the Rain: No good on these - thought I'd be well in to the 2:4x on every one. 2:55, 54, 3:03 ( ? :( ), 2:58, 53, 57, 57, 51. I even switched to 2:00 min jogging recoveries.
Just wasn't there today. The rain wasn't to blame - it felt good, with a temp of 52 degrees. A bunch of loops on neighborhoos streets, and there was some wind, but, overall, working hard without wind on every one of these. 7.72 miles total - 52:43.
PM run around the neighborhood in the new arrival Arahi 4's ! New cushy shoes from Hoka arrived in the mail this afternoon :) 5.3mi - 44:30
