I took a sixteen day break from running.  Now it is time to get serious.  
I will put in some miles this week. 
And then next week begins my sixteen week training program for the 50 mile ultra marathon (4/21/13).
Today marks the end of my 4th year running.  
A six mile run with the goal being ten minute miles.  
I am attempting to learn how to run at a slower pace.  
Quite a different experience!  I averaged 9:38/mile with the splits being in the 9:35-9:44 range.  
Consistent splits. 
But need to work on running a little slower in preparation for the ultra.  
I want to get comfortable with running 10:00/miles, and eventually during longer runs, walk breaks.  
There will be faster miles during training (Tues, Thurs, maybe Wed, and Sat and Sundays…but some to be done in the tens range
and some walking during Longs).
