Woke up late. Ran the river trail loop twice totaling 7 miles. I still feel slow. What is the deal? avg. pace 7:40
Ran 4.35 miles pm today. Avg pace 7:27. I think I like that better.

maybe more sleep? or spinach? although i don't consider 7:40 to be a slow pace. :)

it's better to feel slow and yet be fast, versus the opposite
nice run

"I still feel slow. What is the deal?"
The deal is, YOU'RE CRAZY! 7:40 average would be insanely fast for me. Sounds like a great workout.
When you say you ran the loop twice, is it really a loop or an out and back? I think two actual loops wouldn't be bad, but two out and backs would be mentally tough.

If you are so slow, why couldn't I catch up to you? I came close to that average pace and am so excited I am practically doing back flips. Don't be so hard on yourself. You are superwoman.

Thanks for all the suuuuper nice words.
But I really am feeling slower than normal. I reviewed all my garmin stuff from the last 3 months and I am actually running about 20-30 seconds slower than a a month ago. I guess it will be back to the treadmill tomorrow for some major speed intervals and a night run tonight.
Julie did you see me this morning then?
Jun I think you are a quick runner. So 7:40 fast for you? I would have thought that avg for you?
Allie definitely more sleep! I don't sleep enough lately! Does anyone want to come tell my husband that the loud TV on in my room isn't helping? thanks in advance.

It must've been Scott and Jun pushing you too hard on that mountain. I don't think you've ever recovered from that.

Nice job getting out even though you woke up late. With as hard as you work I'm sure you will start feeling it and shave off that 20-30 seconds soon.

Yeah it's all Scott and jun's fault! :P
Jun, I call that route a loop. I don't know if it really is one though.It's a big 3 1/2 miles circle. It is actually kind of hard. There are hills throughout- not huge ones, but hills none the less.

Yep...7:40 is SLOW - what is the deal! Good grief, I'm not sure if I've ever run a 7ish mile. Speedster....

I ran tonight and my avg pace was 7:27- that is a little more like it!
