75F, 76%. 7:23 AP. 5.5 warmup, then 3.5 at MP. felt terrible. Then a mile easy, and one more at MP. That felt terrible too. In a rut...

77F, 62%. 7:46 AP. No intervals this morning, after an 8-week streak. I felt like walking just after 3 miles of warmup so I knew it wouldn't work out. Ran to the trailer park by the lake and took it easy instead. After passing "Sewer Lagoon," I saw a tiny baby skunk walking around. He was cute enough that I was almost not scared of him. Almost. Then a baby goat came running after me. Interesting wildlife they have down there. In the last mile, I did a few sprints.

I have not been on the blog for more than maybe 10 minutes total this whole week, due to work, but I will catch up with everyone soon. Just when I thought I finally had a reasonable 8-5 job...

79F, 8:18 AP. Didn't feel like doing 6, so I did less, which was still more than I wanted to do, which was zero. Maybe tomorrow will bring some more motivation.
