Manette Hills loop, minus the little added loop around the Y. Easy pace, just getting my legs back under me and used to running in the morning again. It's been a few weeks. 41:00

We were supposed to have a small track practice, but the kids didn't show up. I was at the Bremerton High track with my stuff and it was a pleasant evening, so I decided to do a workout. 

One mile warmup, then 8x800 with one-lap jog in between each. Ran them at a Yasso 800 pace, more or less, with 2:00 for every rest lap. Splits were really even until the last few, then I picked it up some. (2:53, 2:56, 2:56, 2:55, 2:53, 2:51, 2:48, 2:46). Six through eight were really nice, I felt very strong there. Probably should have done 10 or 12 of 'em. That'll be next time.

Post-work run at the Illahee Forest Preserve, 43 minutes on the trails on a cloudy, almost rainy nice. Cooler out than I thought it would be. Legs felt a little sore from Tuesday, not quite fresh but nothing to complain about. Managed a good pace.

Alarm clock malfunction so I wasn't up as early as planned, but I didn't sleep in too much. So I was able to get to Beach Drive by 6:45 or so, giving me enough time to get something in before Slug breakfast. 

Out to 5 and back for 10 miles. The first actually kind of hurt, really stiff and slow to get going. After that I cruised for a few around 7 minute pace, then actually ran some hard miles, unintentionally. I came back with a 6:33, 6:52, 6:43, 6:42.  Didn't really feel like I was pushing too hard even. May get a few easy miles in this afternoon if there's time. 1:09:24
