I ran out to Mini Gu Corner this morning via canal road, felt decent on the way out but then felt horrible on the way in... Not sure what is going on with me but I probably need to go get my levels checked again, I have no energy and I just feel tired all the time. My average pace was slow at 9:10 with a total time of 55:41, I just feel like I good go back to bed, I feel that tired.

See ya Monday.

Payson park loop this morning but I cut out the rollers, I haven't ran this route in a while. I felt okay but not great, I had an 8:30 mile on mile number 4 so that was a pleasent surprise, my average pace was 8:57 with a total time of 55:51... Thats a better time as of late but I'm still feeling run down and no energy, I am going to stay consistant all week and see how it goes. Finsihed up with some push-ups, 3 sets.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran the Mini Gu Corner route this morning, I probably went a little to far, I should have just went 3 or 4 miles as opposed to the 6 miles that I went. But its all good and I'm so proud of myself these last few days, I just need to get back into that routine again and enjoy the morning air. My average pace is still slower but not bad I had an average pace of 9:09 with a total time of 55:23, its been a good start to the week.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran some hills this morning, I ran up to the mailboxes via mount Loafer school and then down Woodland Hills drive to Canal road and then back to the house. I felt okay on the uphill but felt awful on the downhill part, very rough and my pace going both ways was really slow. My average pace was 9:29 with a total time of 54:10.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past Mini Gu and then half way up to Gu Corner and then back to the house via canal road. I felt pretty good again today and pace was quicker like it was on Thursday so that was a nice surprise. The plan is to add a mile each week to my Saturday long run until I get up to 10 or 11 miles and then just hold it there for a while, I don't want to go to far to soon and injure myself. My average pace was 8:35 with a total time of 1:01:02, that was a perfect time as my goal today was to run just over 60 minutes and I was able to do it.

See ya tomorrow.

I missed yesterday but I ran out past Mini Gu this morning, I didn't feel great at all again today but I still was able to get her done and that's the main thing. I had 2 really good runs last week so i just have to stay with it and it will come back eventually. My average pace was slower again at 8:53 with a total time of 54:27, finished up with some push-ups.

See ya tomorrow.

Out to mini Gu again, the first mile I felt a little sluggish but then as the run went on I seemed to get into a pretty good rhythm, my average pace was 8:35 with a total time of 52:18...  I finished up with some push-ups, It was sure a nice morning! I wish it would stay this nice all year long.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past Mini Gu and then out to Gu Corner this morning, it was way windy so my pace was pretty slow. My average pace was 9:01 with a total time of 1:12:44, it was just the right amount of time, it was about 10 more minutes than last Saturday so that was just right. I felt okay today I was just kinda there nothing spectacular, I missed a few days this week but I still was able to run a few days so that was good.

See ya Monday.
