Went down to the river trail and ran a loop there today so I wouldnt have to fight the traffic. Legs loosened up pretty good and were pretty good turn over wise. My average pace was 8:55 with a total time of 1:04:39. It was a good start to the week.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Out to the Riverbottoms and back. I was NOT feeling this morning... Legs were dead and the turnover sucked big time... I just can't seem to get back to where I use to be. Maybe it is old age. Whatever it is it sucks! My average pace was 10:07 with a total time of 1:42:57, I finished up with some upper and lower body weights and some pushups. Heres to better days.

See you Monday.
