So glad this run is out of the way. Ran up to Celebration Park (almost, it was more hills to the top so stopped just before) and back. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but it wasn't too enjoyable. WAY too much traffic, if I'm going to do this route I need to leave way earlier on a weekend day, it was loud and exhausty and I thought I was probably going to be killed. It was also pretty hilly (pretty much all of 9th street is a one mile+ hill!), I kept getting a side-ache, and my right shoulder kept hurting (probably from being tense from thinking I was going to die). The good part was that if it had been in my neighborhood, I'm sure I would have stopped way earlier because I was tired, and all these other reasons! Walked 0.23 cool-down for total of 6.57.
I missed Lisa and Anya today. Splits: 10:11, 9:42, 9:55, 9:40, 9:40, 9:42, 9:42 (.34) I am pretty consistent eh? Average pace: 9:47, Total Ascent: 701 ft. Later went golfing so got in probably another 2 miles of walking. Good thing, because I just ate the most delicious and terrible meal for me ever. Weekly Summary: Mon-off, Tues-3, Wed-2, Thurs-off, Fri-4.15, Sat-off, Sun-6.34 Weekly Total: 15.49

| | Had late class tonight but rushed home and got on the TM to try and get in 3.5 before the new LOST (while watching the recap show, of course!). Ran 5 minutes over or so, and didn't get the cool-down in, so just did a .25 warm up and only .06 cool down instead of .25 for 3.81 total. 1.5 at 5.6 (10:42), .5 at 5.8 (10:20), 1 at 6.0 (10:00) and last .5 at progression every .1 up to 6.8. Kind of a tempo run for me. LOST LOST LOST LOST LOST! We have to go back!

5pm, 50 F. After an incredibly nasty day of rain when I was almost home from class all of a sudden it was dry out! So as soon as I got home I grabbed Cooper and headed out, when of course it started drizzling again immediately, but I never really noticed it, my ears were cold for a little bit (achey) but otherwise the rain kept me at a good temperature. GREAT run today, just felt great, out there with my bestest friend Cooper. :-) Felt so good I wanted to keep going and do 4 but decided to not be stupid. Walked .25 cool-down.
Splits: 10:05, 9:43, 9:27 Average: 9:38 30 minutes of yoga later.

20 minutes or so of tennis with Justin. Felt so sluggish and blah, plus it was sprinkling the whole time, so we are quitters. Probably barely burned off the candy hearts I'm eating right now! Maybe yoga later, I have a lot of work to do.

| | 7am, 50 F. GREAT morning run with Cooper. The weather was PERFECT! I was way overdressed (as usual) so shed my fleece and ear wrap immediately and wished I could take off my tights. Felt a little sluggish, but everything else was great. .11 walking cool-down. Off to a really busy day and weekend! TT: 38:55, Splits: 10:01, 9:37, 9:44, 9:29 AP: 9:43
