Boy, have I lost my motivation to train since SGM.  I just didn't want to do it last night, but I finally decided to run on the treadmill.  I set it at my standard 1% incline and did a warm up mile that felt good.  I then increased the pace to 6:40 and did that for 3 miles.  Then I did 2 easy cool down miles.  It wasn't a great run, but I did it.  Maybe after my time off, running on the beach with my wife, I'll return with new found motivation.  3 DAYS AND COUNTING!!!

I wanted to get in some good speed work before heading out on vacation, so I dragged myself down to the track last night.  I did a mile warm up then did 6 x 800m repeats with 1 min walk breaks.  I averaged 2:44 on the repeats.  I did a cool down and headed home.

Total run 6 miles         Avg. Pace 7:11

It felt good to do some speed work.  I almost hit "Puke Pace" once but fought it off and continued on.

Lifted weights- focused on upper body in hopeless attempt to look better on my tropical vacation.  Then did the eliptical for 30 mins.

No more workouts before trip.  I'll be leaving Havasu at 2 am tomorrow to catch my flight out of Vegas at 6 am.  I'll report  my island running when I get back.
