| Ran at lunch today. The rain moved through in the morning so I didnn't get to run in the rain today. Seems like it was the first time in a while. It didn't really enjoy this one. I just maintained as best I could. It turns out that it was a little faster than a normal easy run. Mcmillan has me between 7:06 and 7:36 for easy runs. So I'm not too much faster than that. 5.4 6:58/mile average |

A little misty and around 60. Same route as Tuesday. I felt ok - not great. But I did feel better after the turnaround. It seems like I take around 3-4 miles to warmup.

Ran at lunch today - breeze and in the high 50's. I was sleepy at work, which pretty much means I'll have a decent run. So of course I had a good run. It wasn't long but I felt good. Wind in my face on the way out and at my back on the way back. This week is shaping up ok. I should end up with 47 or 48 for the week. I'd like to start averaging around 50 for a while. First I need to have two decent weeks in a row. I haven't had very consistent training weeks recently.

| Chrys took the kids and Grandma to the mall to look at furniture, so I took a nice long run down to Peachtree.. It is a perfectly beautiful day here. Low 70's and a light breeze. Tons of people down at at Peidmont park (which is like Atlanta's version of Central park). I ate too much last night, so I had plenty of stored energy. I felt good the whole way. I just took it easy sneezy took some powerade but didn't drink but maybe 6 oz. lost at least 2 min at traffic lights -- lots of red lights today 16 at 7:40 average pace.

very windy today and 46 degrees. It actually wasn't that bad, but I hope this is the last gasp of the cool temps. I already had packed up my long sleeve running shirts and I don't want to get any more of them out of the closet.
4.4 at 7:18 pace. Hopefully will do another 30-35 min after work.

Ran at 7 tonight- it was chilly and windy again. low 40s isn't what I have in mind for April here in GA. But I felt good the whole time which is good for once on this route. Trying to have two good weeks in a row. It has been a while.

| ran after work today. I had some oatmeal and an orange 30 min before hand. I felt a little slow at the start but felt better as it went along. The first 4 were at 7:30 pace right on. The 2nd half I gradually cranked it up and managed an average 6:51 pace. The last two miles have long significant hills, so I'm pleased with the pace. I need to throw a tempo run in on Thursday.

| Heavy from eating out last night - didn't think I overae but must have been salty or something. Anyway, out at 7:45 this morning to a beautiful morning. 60 deg and low winds. It was great weather for a long run. I took it easy and didnt blast any of the miles. I just didn't feel like it. 12.9 at 7:49 pace |

it was a great weekend but it is over. Took Sunday off again although I really wanted to run. Got in 4.4 at lunch and 5 after work. I think my left ankle tendonitis is coming back. I'll have to see how it feels tomorrow.

messeed up my eating prior to this. had a snack at 3:30 and then didn't get out until 5:15. I got really weak in the middle of this one. But I pressed on through and I felt ok towards the end. It didn't feel this slow, but I got stuck at at least a couple traffic lights...
My foot felt ok today. My lower legs are tired though. I have to get new shoes. I'm just voer 700 miles on these, which is a new high for me I think.

| still getting used to this heat. this one was harder than it should be. i used some old shoes that only had 550 miles on them. they felt downright springy compared to that other boxes I was wearing on my feet. Those brooks that I have been wearing, I don't think I like them. Going back to the Miuzuno, the Brooks feel a clumpy, I think I'll go back to Asics or Mizunos for the next pair. 6.1 at 7:16 pace

| It was a beautiful day. I took this one easy - this route gets me mentally a lot of the time and I end up paying for it at the end. So I just cruised along. about 7:45 miles over all. 10 - 7:45 pace
