I went for a run late around lunch and I finally felt like my stride was able to lengthen out and it felt good and my pace reflected that. My average pace was 8:19 with a total time of 52:02, I had 3.25 MP miles on the way back, 8:05, 7:51, 7:39, .25 8:12. I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. I finally felt like my stride was back today, so happy.

See you tomorrow.

Out Past Min Gu and then back to the house via canal road, I did some half mile pickups on the way back to the hosue and those translated into 3.25 MP miles, 8:08, 8:08, 7:58, .25 8:05, I finished up with some lower body weight training, squats and leg raises. Stride felt really good again today, just trying to get some good rythmn back in my form.

See you tomorrow.

Pretty Little Hill route Via canal road and then back to the house, tacked a little more on after I got back to the house. Stride was off and My ITBand was super tender but by the end everything was working better so that was a positive. My average pace was 8:43 with a total time of 54:31, I had one MP mile at 7:59... I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

Finally a good long run! Pace was strong the whole way and my legs handled the run from the very beginning. I had 6 MP Miles and they were all towards the end on tired legs, breathing was easy as well. I hope I'm not peaking to soon. Average pace was 8:31 with a total time of 2:51:51, I'm really thankful for this run. I ran a little bit with Tommy to this morning.

See you Monday.
