Long Run!  Ran down to my old neighborhood to run with my Math Professor Friend.  3.5 mile down at 7:44.  The middle four miles were nice and slow at 8:45 (she admits she's a little out of shape) and then pushed it home at 7:35 for the last 3.5 miles

4 on the treadmill before work.  Boring, watched Happy Endings.  Pace was a leisurely 8:15

The weather was kinda icky so I retreated to the treadmill run.  Watched mindless TV and ran an easy 8:10 pace.

AM: Got lazy and was kinda nauseous so I skipped my run last night so I did it this morning before work.  Raining out so 4 on the treadmill before work.  Pace was like 8:00s.

PM: Rented drive and ran 6 more on the treadmill.  It's a crazy movie, way better than I expected and has an awesome soundtrack

 

I really need to be more consistent on my blog updating. I go back and forget what my runs were like and can't fill in the details.  Plus I hate leaving my regular readers (HA HA, what readers!) hanging

Ran 5 with Ralphie after dinner.  Average pace was 7:49 and felt good but my tummy was a little bouncy.  Should have waited a little longer after dinner.
