Payson Park loop and then I added a little more when i returned home. I felt a little tired and not super motivated this morning but I got her done. The last few miles felt a little more normal and fluid. My average pace was 8:48 with a total time of 1:11:57, I finished up with some upper body weights and some pushups.

See you tomorrow.
