Ran up wade rd. I was able to get one of the uphill miles (with a fairly step hill) done in 8:04/mile. The downhill miles were sub 8 min as always. The cold is limiting me from pushing too hard. AP: 8:04.

only time for 4.5 miles this morning felt pretty good had to stop once to dry heave. the cough is getting much better. Same route as all week. I like that this has a little hill on it. I have mostly been able to keep my pace around 8/mile up the hill. AP: 8:11/mile.

Ran with Chase today. He did really well until I decided to push ahead for a little bit. I guess I went a lot faster than him. He got scared when I got back he was with a lady by her mailbox. He was ok I felt bad for losing him. He wasn't in any real danger we were only a couple of blocks from our house. We went slow the rest of the way home. AP: 8:33
