Payson park loop but I stopped short. My average pace was 9:00 with a total time of 56:35, I finished up with some upper body weights and some pushups. The last couple of miles my stride opened up a little morre than normal which was a nice surprise. Slowly progressing in the right direction. My weight is at 179.

See you tomorrow.
