6 miles elliptical 11% resistance.  I had to use a different type of machine today and I am not sure that it was as good of a workout.  I had to go faster and barely got the 6 miles in at 49:11 but the resistance was not as hard.

Meet up with SDRR.  I decided to run without  looking at my watch today like Rhett did last week.  The whole run felt really great.  I have to admit I accidentally looked at my watch one time when I was going up hill and it read 9:28.  I thought for sure I had slipped back into my comfortable 9:30 pace.  I was really surprised too see my splits when I got home.

Splits 8:47, 8:25, 8:38, 8:47, 9:16 (2 big hills), 8:23, 8:49, 8:43

I am not sure why the run felt so good.  Some possible reasons are:

1- I didn't thrash my legs as much on the elliptical yesterday so they were fresher.

2- I had to take Motrin before the run because of a knot it my back (due to bad push-up form)

3 - I am actually getting faster!

I hope it is the last one...time will tell!
