Ellyptical + treadmill at Gold's - 52:35

Neighborhoods + Borah track - 49:38

Another night time run (9 p.m.) Listened to some music and just tried to enjoy some time outside. At the track, I did 8 x 50m accelerations to turn the legs over a bit.

Greenbelt - 1:17

Great run on a drizzly but mild afternoon. Ran from the zoo to Barber Park and back, on my favorite stretch of the greenbelt. Over half of it was on dirt, which is always nice. Did 40 minutes steady at about 7:15-7:20/mile pace, then did 5-4-3-2-1 minutes fartlek on the way back.

5 minutes @ 6:08/mile; 4 minutes @ 5:58/mile; 3 minutes @ 5:50/mile; 2 minutes @ 5:37/mile; 1 minute @ 5:19/mile.

Felt good about this one. Now I need to do better than 3 runs a week and I might see some progress!
