Went for a run to clear my head after a semi-frustrating day.  Its amazing how therapeutic running can be.  7 miles at a nice pace.  Felt great and when I got home my head was clear.  Paces: 9:21, 9:07, 9:02, 9:24, 9:12, 8:49, 9:19.  Elevation change: 285 ft.

9 miles outside- brrrr was it cold. AP- 9:24. Splits- 11:35, 9:14, 8:49, 8:56, 9:14, 9:15, 8:44, 9:04, 9:39. Elevation change- 243ft. My gait felt a bit clunky- not tired just out of sync. OveraLl felt great to complete another 9 miles.

5.5 miles on the treadmill. AP-8:41. It was nice to be warm but the TM is so monotonous. Faster paces seemed easier today but I didn't want to push it especially since I've been increasing my mileage a lot. So far my knee is doing great. I'm wondering if the slower paces are helping.

10.5 miles down 114th to daybreak lake and back. AP- 9:15.  Splits- 10:14, 10:14, 9:59, 9:47, 9:48, 9:18, 8:31, 8:17, 8:29, 7:55.  I didn't realize it when I was running but the whole way out to daybreak was uphill (and into the wind) so the run back home was awesome; with the wind at my back and gravity on my side.  Elevation: 594 ft. 

Great run!
