not giving up on the comeback

did 4 in 27:40 earlier today -- in my new Mizuno Wave Nexus 3's- nice training shoes

dd 5 tonight in 32:15 in my new Saucony Tangent 3's - they are light stability shoes - 9OZ each and they are fast.  I think I found my new magic shoes - and they were $49...

I guess I'll have to do another double.  I was going to do 8 before getting the kids from school, but didn't get out in time.   

At least I felt pretty good today.  Things haven't felt too much like a chore this week.  I'll take that while I can get it. 

4 @ 7:01 ave pace

later in the day -- a little sore :)  4.4 @ 7:15 ave pace

didnt get to do my planned day cause my son was sent home from school but I got to do 6 after my wife came home.  A little tight today - felt better towards the end...

6 @ 7:08 ave pace

Not sure what kind of these miles these were. ' i did a two mile warm up and then 4 miles I did 3 min fast with 1 minute at normal pace.  I think the 3 min fast pace was around half marathon pace, comfortably uncomfortable - tempo pace I guess.  I'm really unable to judge pace right now.  I did this on my hilly route.  Pleased with this run, although I need to leave out the 1 min slow downs. 

I think it ended up being this below -

2 warmup @ 7:20 pace

4 in the middle @ 6:15 ave pace - not sure where that puts the speedups but they must have been pretty good.

2 cool down @ 7:20 pace

did a couple of runs today and I felt fine.  Read a blurb in one of the recent Runners World's tha mentioned McMillan having people split up their daily miles into two portions.  Turns out it may burn more calories.  Either way, it was nice to read something positive about what I've been doing for the past year or so.  I don't want to shortchange myself but I also don't seem be able to get in the longer runs....

4.2 @ 7:20 ave pace

4.6 @ 7:00 ave pace

nice run in the rain

10 @ 7:20 ave pace
