I ran the Mini GU Corner loop via canal road, I felt pretty good today and it was super nice outside. My average pace was 8:29 with a total time of 51:45, I felt like I wasn't working hard at all so that is a great sign.

See ya tomorrow.

I decided to do some hills today as I have not done any since being insured last year, I ran up to the mailboxes via Mount Loafer school and then I ran down Woodland Hills Drive to canal road and then back to the house. Once getting home I extended out about a half a mile and then back to the house. My average pace was 8:25 total time was 55:54, pretty darn good considering the first 3 miles are pretty much uphill and steep, I had a full mile on one of the downhills and that mile was 7:22, I wasn't really pushing it on that downhill section I just let the hill do the work. I felt really good on the uphill not to tired at all so that was a pleasant surprise, It was a great run and I feel like I am on the right track. I finished with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran the Mini Gu Corner route, I kept a really nice 8:25 mile pace on the way out and then my legs got a little tired on the way back, I knew they would after the harder workout yesterday. I feel like I am turning the corner so to speak, I hope I can keep this up. My average pace was 8:33 with a total time of 52:11, light stretching afterward.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past the old barn on canal road and then towards Payson, went out about 2 miles or so and then came back to the house the same way, I just kept the pace nice and easy. Average pace was 8:50 with a total time of 40 minutes even.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to Gu Corner and then back to the house, I then tacked on a couple more out to the old barn on canal road. I average an 8:40 mile on the way out and then I was averaging an 8:30 mile on the way back, I felt pretty good and its my 3rd week of 30 plus miles per week. I will cut back a little bit next week, I will run every day but less miles. I want to be smart. My average pace was 8:37 with a total time of 1:27:07, I had a great week of training and it was a good run to end the week on, I'm actually starting to love running again.

See ya Monday
