Ran to Kim's house 2.35 miles @8:02 pace).  Lovin' the cooler weather minus the smoke-filled air  : DDDD.

Ran Kim's worksheet speed workout on the TM.  Faster paces feeling easier and easier.  Ran 3 X 2000 (1.25 miles) with 1 lap recovery(.25 miles after each one):  Started like this:  1 mile warm up on TM at 8:00 to 8:34 pace (1% incline).  Interval 1:  9.2mph (6:35 x 1000 increased to 6:31x1000, 9.3mph).  Recover at 6.7mph (8:54)x 1 lap..  Felt so cloud like here at this pace.  Sweating like I was in Haites.  Fan on but tipping back.  Window open.  Door closed.  Interval 2:  9.3 mph (6:31pace x 1000 then 9.4 x 1000 for 6:27 pace).  Recovery at 6.7 mph x 1 lap.  Had to pick up the pace, good sign, hitting the top of treadmill with feet.  Interval 3:  9.4 mph x 1600, didn't want to overdo it, but did pick it up for last lap (400m) to 9.5mph-  6:22.  Cool down at 7.1 to 7.4 mph (8:15? to 8:27?) for 1 mile (Total TM miles 6.5).  Workout felt controlled and quite exhilarating, detoxifying.  Lots of dripping sweat,  Kim came in right after I finished my last one.  She was at the gym.  She was like "wow, it is HOT in here".  Didn't notice.  Hope this plays well for dry desert heat of the SGM.  I am sure it will be hot this year.   Ran home a little slower than warmup here at 8:13.  Felt really easy.  Work tonight, 12 inductions scheduled.  All the mommies want their babies born on 9/9/09.  Half of those will be 9/10/09.  Sorry mommies.  Some inductions take a while : ((.
