I ran to work, 5 miles, the long way this morning keeping HR under 140. Then I ran home the same way after work.  I love having a shower in my new office.  My Garmin gave me a new VO2Max of 52 after the evening run.  I don't know what 52 means, but it is a change in the right direction so that means my fitness in improving.  Yea me! :)

Did my weekly hill repeats...1.5 miles to the hill, 60 minutes of hill repeats, and 1.5 miles home for a total of 9 miles. It always feels good to have that workout done for the week.

10 miles on the trails this morning keeping HR under 140. I'm getting faster at this lower HR and was moving at a good clip and stepped wrong on a rock and rolled my ankle. It rolled pretty far a scared me good. At first I thought I had really hurt myself but was able to run it off and finish without much discomfort.  It doesn't seem to be bad now a few hours latter.  A little sore, but no discoloration or swelling.  Looks like I may have dodged a bullet this time.

A really nice, really easy 10 miles on the trails keeping HR under 130.  It's amazing how beautiful the world looks when you're running at such a low HR.

I planned on getting in some mp pace miles this morning, but after 1 mile warm up at 8:07 I started into a faster run and ended up doing 10 more miles more at tempo pace than mp: 6:48, 6:42, 6:47, 6:43, 6:43, 6:42, 6:45,6:48, 6:33, 6:22.  I didn't think I could hold 10 miles at that pace but was excited when I finished and still felt pretty good.  I guess all that low HR running is paying off.
