Super tired from  all the yard work yesterday. I just have to be be smarter in my old age. I didn't fuel up at all during the yard work and I suffered today for it. My average pace was all jacked up because I forgot to turn my watch off when I stopped to take of my top and fuel up. My average pace was 8:48 with a total time of 1:56:30, I finished up with some upper body weights and some push-ups. It was a pretty good week. I missed one day of running out of laziness so I need to tighten that up going forward.

See you Monday.

I ran up Loafer Canyon to the gate ands then back down to the house. I felt pretty good on the way up but a little wobbly and weaker onb the way down. My average pace was 9:19 with a total time of 1:15:43, the downhill MP miles were as follows. 8:03, 7:49, 7:59, 8:06. I think I can improve on those as I get stronger. uppr body weights to finish up.

See you tomorrow.
