I ran the Payson Park loop this morning and did the extended loop and then back to the house via canal road. my legs were really hammered from the 20 miler on Saturday and it was pretty much a death march from the get go! But I was able to hang in there and get er done. My average pace was real slow at 9:06 with my total time at 1:05:02, after the run I did my upper body weight training and then some pushups. I hope the legs feel better tomorrow.

Later.

I ran out to GU Corner and then back to the house via canal road, on the way back I did a progression run and it went like this 8:20, 7:56, 7:24 and then I backed to a 8:00 so I felt a little better today in the legs, not so dead. My average pace was 8:21 with my total time at 1:07:42, after the run I did my upper body weight training and then some push-ups so a pretty nice day and I was glad that I was able to get out.

See ya tomorrow.
