I struggled to get myself out of bed, but when I finally did I hit the road for what was supposed to be an easy 7mi. I felt really slow and sluggish through about 6 mi. but started waking up in the last mile. Turns out the reason I was feeling sluggish was that I was trying to run way too fast in the beginning. I ended up with a 6:33 ave. for the run. I have got to get into a better warm up routine.

I went for an unplanned run this evening. My 12 mile out and back down SC PKWY. I just ran to do some thinking, but ended up finishing pretty fast knowing that it was my last run of the week. 6:36 ave.
