Out to the T and back and then I added a little more wehn I got back to the house, I felt pretty good. Not great but pretty good. My average pace was 9:29 with a total time of 39:38, I finished up with some upper and lower body weights and some pushups.

See you tomorrow.

I feel like I am going backwards... Legs are tired before I even get started. It feels like I have run a marathon before I even start. Not sure what has happened. Its been a slow downward spiral over that last couple of years. I refuse to believe that its an age thing. To lose so much so fast doesnt make any sense. My average pace was super slow at 10:25 with a total time of 43:05. Frustrating.

See you tomorrow.
