i was supposed to run 2x 3mi "strength" intervals.  the first interval went fine 8:42, 8:47, 8:20 (i keep calling myself "fast" like you told me to Sasha, but it's not working! lol  oh yeah, i have to run consistantly too, shoot....)  I took the dog on the 2nd interval, she's fast but she likes to swerve in front of me so I slowed to around 10 min miles so I wouldn't end up in the E.R.  I'll finish up the 2nd interval tonight.  Took an ice bath post run.

10mi, 9:20 average pace. testing my "marathon pace"   so slow, but i'm getting better at pacing for the upcoming UVM.   I'm going to stick around 9:15 for the first 13 miles and then see if I can pick up the pace a bit after that.  UVM will be my first full so I'm not going to push it. by the SGM i'll speed up a lot.

post run i feel a lot better about my running technique. the runners corner running technique clinic from a while ago was helpful but I went totally overboard critiquing my runs after that.  i finally feel like i'm running sort of relaxed and naturally again, if that makes sense. i'm still trying to incorporate the techniques i learned at the clinic into my running, but i'm going to make the changes much more slowly & carefully.

gave the nike free runs another try... yep, they are still are horrible running shoes. at least for "bigger" folks. if i somehow loose 50 lbs someday i'll try them again.  until then they will be nice walking shoes.

ran my miles late, on backroads, in the dark, on a cloudy night.  some night i'm going to get attacked by a skunk and not even know it's coming.
