I slept in this morning so I ran after work. Out to Payson Park and Back Via canal road, pace was pretty darn good again and I just beat the 8:30 guy so that was a pleasant surprise. My average pace was 8:28 with a total time of 1:01:04,Ii finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

 See you tomorrow

Out to Mini Gu Corner, legs were horrible again, Super weak and pace was so off. I guess the short turnaround in recvoery could have been the problem but I felt just rotten. It was a beautiful morning though. My average pace was slow at 9:45 with a total time of 59:48, I finished with some lower body weights. probably not the smartest thing to do after dieing on a run. :)

See you tomorrow.

Prertty little Hill Route Extended. I felt way better this morning and pace was a lot better and leg strength and trunover were a lot better. My average pace was 8:38 with a total time of 1:01:50... My wife Broke her foot and ankle last night so I'm not sure how it will affect my training schedule. Poor thing. She just got healed up from her right foot being broke a few years ago now her left? Damn when it rains it pours.

See you tomorrow.

Crashed hard on the lasy 4 or so miles, Legs just really hurt and were super tired. Knda Disappointing where I had a day off yesterday, I thought the old legs would be ready yo go. NOT! I'm not so sure I can finishe a marathon at this point. If I don't start getting stronger then I might have to rethink running SG this year. Damn covid has just wrecked me. Some days I feel like I'm getting back to normal and then I'll have a day like today. Ouch! My average pace was 9:14 with a total time of 2:37:22.

See you tomorrow.
