Out to Mini Gu Corner and then Took a Detour on the way back just to break up the route, the legs were tired and slower than normally but I still beat the 9 minute guy. So that still makes me faster than I was in High school. HAHA. Mya evrage pace was 8:58 with a total time of 1:03:57, I finished up with some lower body weights on the legs. It was a better week for me but I still need to get to at leat 5 days a week, and start getting some double digit runs in on the weekends.

See you Monday.

It seemed like I had Detour after Detour this morning... I felt okay but I crashed a little on the last few. I was able to get it together for the last mile and get my pace a little bit back to normal, a little tired afterward.

See you Monday.

Harrys Hill with Bigfoot on my tail, I felt strong on the uphill but the downhill was a struggle... My average pace was 8:49 with a total time of 56:24, I had 1 MP mile on the downhill at 7:55, this needs to be in the sub 7:30 range. Still a good effort. Lower body weights to finish up.
