So slow and my legs were just so freaking tired and unable to respond. Oh well. My average pace was 10:26 with a total time of 1:04:24. Like I said super slow. Hopefully the legs will start cooperate.

See you tomorrow.

My average pace was 11:01 with a total time of 1:29:24, I finished uo with some upper and lower body weights and some pushups.

See you tomorrow.

Out to the riverbottoms and back. I felt pretty good today. my turnover was a lot better and my legs handled the mileage just fine. I felt like I could have keep going for a few more. My average pace was 9:23 with a total time of 1:54:37. My pace was a little better than it should. I stopped to talk to my wife and I forgot to trun off my watch. A decent week for me mileage wise. I am happy with the effort.

See you Monday.
