3 more treadmill miles with a .25 mile cool down.  I tried to pick the pace up a little on the last mile.  AP: 8:10.

OK- I feel better now.  I went for a run this morning from my house, over & up tithing hill and across Lampton view.  It was hard.  I thought- Ouch, I have lost all of my training, in the last few weeks of sporadic training.  I was a bit depressed about it.  My Garmin quit a while back so I had to time how long it took me and then use map my run to determine the distance.  For some reason I had in my mind that the run was only 5 miles so as I was running I thought, not only that my pace was fairly slow, like a 9mm, but that I was losing it because my legs and lungs were not cooperating like I wanted them to. Well, the run was actually 5.81 miles so my AP was 7:47.  That's a pretty good pace for a fairly hard run.  I feel much better now.   1.3 mile cool down.

Ran with some of the BBK group today.  It was really nice to have people to talk to.  I've missed training withe the group.  I struggled quite a bit- my legs were tired but I managed 11.5 miles at about a 9:10 pace (I think).  

After the run I had to hustle home and get ready for a wedding at my house. The wedding went really well but I am beat.  I just barely got a chance to sit down, so I have been on my feet for 16 1/2 hours.  WOW, no wonder I'm so tired.
