Noon run, sunny, temp. 65'

My legs were feeling like they needed an easy day.  I was running around 8 minute miles for a couple of miles then Cal showed up on the path and ran with me, however, he was doing a fast day so I had to speed up.  We ran a couple of miles together averaging about 7:05-7:10 miles.  As soon as he left I slowed back down.  Hopefully my legs will feel fresh tomorrow and fell like doing a tempo run.

Afternoon run, partly sunny, temp. 65'

I couldn't get out tell 2:30 this afternoon, to many fires to put out.  As soon as I started running I could tell my 2 mile tempo run would be tough.  I wanted to run the miles under 6 minutes.  I ran about 2.5 miles then I started the tempo run.  The first mile felt good with a 5:56 but I could tell the 2nd mile was going to hurt.  I push hard and ran a 5:54 which I then immediatly went to a 10+ minute mile pace for the next quarter mile trying to recover.  I'm sure 2 sub 6's are probably a little faster than I should be running for a tempo run but it felt good to know I could do it.

Time 36:53,  Mile avg. - 7:15

Noon run, mostly cloudy, some wind, temp. 47'

Nice run, I wore a long sleeve shirt and was glad during the second half of the run when it started to sprinkle and got a little more windy.

Noon run, cloudy, temp. 48'

I played basketball last night for over an hour and I thought my legs would be dead but they were ok.  I ran at close to 8:00 minute pace for the first 4 miles then just to make sure my mile average would be under 8 I ran the last mile in 7:20.

Morning run, cloudy, very windy, temp 50'

Puchasing a used car for my teenage drive took all my free time yesterday along with throwing a birthday party for my 14 year old daughter so I didn't run. 

However, today I went out planning on doing 8 miles at however I felt.  I always hope I feel good on Saturdays so I can run a bit harder knowing that I won't be running on Sunday.  Today I felt good from the start.  Knowing I felt good I decided to see if I could run an average of just under 7 minute miles.  The 1st 4 miles was slightly uphill and I average about 7:20 miles and on the way back I was running into the wind the 1st 2 miles and I averaged about 6:45's,  at that point I was doubting I would get my under 7 mintue miles but the last 2 miles I didn't have to fight the wind so I was able to get my goal. 

Time 56:22,  Mile Avg. - 6:58
