4, I think. I still haven't ran this route with my Garmin, but I know it is close to 4. Anyway, felt good and am feeling stronger. I try to push myself up the hills rather than slowing down, like I have done in the past. I hope I am improving and they don't seem to hurt as bad. That is good.
My dad ran the course from saturdays run and it was a bit short. I am still happy with my time though. | | Add Comment |

Up early to run this morning. Got up at 5:55 and headed out at 6. The plan was to go 6 or so to make sure I am ready for the 10k this weekend. I headed out to where I thought was close to 3, but when I got home my dad told me the turn around was 3.5. I drove it to make sure and it was. I should wear my garmin and I would know for sure, but my excuse today was I didn't wake up in time for it to calibrate or whatever it has to do before it works.
Anyway, I felt really good and it only took me a few minutes over an hour. That is right about 9's which I am very happy with at this point.
Happy to be at it again!!!!!!!!!!! | | Add Comment |

My hip was uncomfortable yesterday for some reason, so I thought running might hurt. It didn't though, YEAH!! I went the same 4 as always. I tried speeding up a block at a time today. I doubt that is considered speed work, but I hope things like that will help me get stronger and maybe even faster in the long run.
I am VERY happy to be out there again and running. | | Add Comment |

Had to get up and get the blood flowing today. People say you should take a day off, the day before a run, but I didn't. I feel way to groggy and yucky when I don't run.
Anyway, took it easy (like always). Same 3, couple of hills. Feel good.
Excited for Butch Cassidy tomorrow, but not looking forward to the late start. Oh well. | | Add Comment |

Today was a great run. The only complaint I have is it got way hot, way fast and I was more prepared for the cold. Thank goodness I didn't run in a long sleeved shirt.
There were a couple good hills and I had to give in and walk 30 steps on the first one. I walked pretty close to the top of it cuz I ran out of juice.
Anyway, it was beautiful and I was happy to do it. I run it 2 minutes faster thatn my last 10k which makes me very, very happy.
