I ran the Payson park loop this morning and I was not feeling real good! My legs were clunky and I just didn't seem to have it this morning, I felt okay going out but then on the way back my legs just kind of lost their mojo, my average pace was 8:22 with my total time at 59:45. I finished up with 10 minutes easy on the elliptical and then some strength training on my upper body, I thought I would feel a little bit better with a couple of days rest but it didn't happen, oh well there is always tomorrow.

 

See ya later.

I ran out to Gu corner and then back to the house, my legs felt a little better today which was a good thing I had a couple of sub 8 minutes miles so I will count then as MP miles. My average pace was 8:18, total time was 1:06:50, after the run I jumped on the elliptical for 21 minutes, started out slow and then progressed up to a moderate pace (95RPM) until the end. I feel pretty good about the run  and the workout in general, I need to find a race like a half marathon or something just to see where I'm at. On a side not I played in my first Pro Am golf tournament for the year yesterday and I played pretty good for not much playing or practicing, I shot an even par 72 which was kind of fun. I could have been another 2 or 3 under par but I missed 3 or 4 birdie putts with in 10 feet, but I'm still pretty happy with the round.

 

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to GU corner and then back to the house, the pace was upbeat and then I jjust tried to keep it going. The splits went like this; 8:11, 8:04, 8:04, 7:44, 7:34, 7:54, 8:03, 8:04, average pace was 7:57 and total time was 1:04:35. I felt a little clunky for most of the run but on the middle miles I was feeling a little better, the last couple of miles I was fighting a head wind so they were slower than I wanted,  I was thinking to much about the wind and not my form and the pace. After the run I jumped on the elliptical for 20 minutes at a moderate pace and then some work on the rubber ball for my core and then some push-ups. I hope to get in a run in the morning tomorrow or at least that's my goal, I've been a bit lazy as of late but I'm trying to work on it!

See ya tomorrow.

I went for an easy afternoon run, I ran out to the base of harry's hill and then ran around pretty little hill and then back home. My legs were pretty tired from yesterday so it was not a fun run but I new it would be a light day and that's how I kept the pace. Average pace was 8:50, total time was 46:07, no elliptical today. I hope my legs feel better tomorrow cuz they don't feel good right now.

See ya tomorrow.
