I went to the doctor and had some blood work done on friday and results came back  and everything ewas right where it shgould be. He did say that I am not getting enough protein so I am on Protien shakes for the forseeable future. It sure made a differnece today. I finally felt like a runner again today and I am so excited. I know I have a way to go but hopefully I am on the right track. My average pace was really easy and comfortable at 8:24 with a total time of 1:00:38, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you  tomorrow.

Loafer Canyon to the Gate and then towards the fire road. I felt good again on the way up but not very good on the way down, legs are having a hard time turning over fast. Hopefully they will do better the more I run the downhill. I had 3 MP miles at 7:58, 7:39, 7:51, I would like those to be more in the 7:30 range. My average pace was 9:28 with a total time of 1:16:59, I finished up with some lower body weight training.

See you tomorrow.

Usual Saturday route. I went out a little two fast but the pace was pretty steady throughout the run, I was a little tired towards the end but I think that was because of the heat and that I am not use to the pace. Progress! My average pace was 8:31 with a total time of 2:01:09, very pleased with the way that I felt.

See you Monday.
