Felt fat and sweaty

10 miles around the base. Got to run 7 of them with Brittany. So nice to have someone to run with that went further than 6 miles at a good pace!

2.5 mile warm up

6x400 between 1:35-1:38 200-400 rest between each

People were out doing their PT test so I had to stay in the 4th lane. I started and ended in the wrong place. Some of the laps I didn't even start my watch, I wanted to scream. The first couple were 1:37, 1:38... the last one I finally got the inside lane and I ran 1:30, so I know they were all on pace.

Watched a group of guys do a practice PT. They were huffing and puffing and I passed some of them on my recovery laps. Oh dear.

3 miles with naomi and I thought I was going to DIE

7 slow miles

Daddy of all daddies run today. The BIG one. 8 miles easy and then 5x2 sets... first set @ 7:30, second set negative splitting.

Got going and it was dark and cooler than usual. Saw an animal that scared the crap out of me. Mile 3 there was a bird that scared me. I'm terrible running in the dark.

Mile 4-bathroom stop. Didn't know if I was going to make all 20 miles. Belly was not happy. Stopped at home @ mile 8 to GU and salt stick.

Proud of this run! 7:56 AP.

6 miles slow. I got to run with Hilary and Sarah for a bit. My 6 mile run turned into an hour and a half because of all the talking. It was fun.
