I ran out towards Mini GU corner but stopped about a half of a mile short, IT band felt pretty good going out in-fact I did a couple of marathon pace miles (7:21) & (7:46) wasn't trying real hard on that last one. I had to stop at the stake center and stretch for just a minute but then I added on another mile and then stretched again at the house and then I finished up with some Push-ups and 10 minutes on the elliptical. Rolled my leg as well, and it was truly sore but only when I was rolling it, average pace was 8:07 with my HR average at 141 total time was 49:30 for the 6 miles. I hope the darn thing continues to improve, but I still don't know how I will get in any long runs at this point if I can only do 6 to 7 miles at a time... I don't know??? I guess I will see how Saturday goes and then go from there.

See ya tomorrow.

Nice run and great heart rate for that pace. I can only dream of my heart rate being that low at that pace, I'm usually in the high 150s.
