I came down with a fever on saturday night and never really felt right until this morning.  Unfortunately feeling normal while working on a computer is a lot different than feeling normal for a run.  But I ignored the desire to turn around after the first slow mile.  I just basically jogged 8 miles and got some miles in for the day.  Hopefully tomorrow I feel normal while running.

felt better today.  My overall pace was back to normal but I had trouble keeping the effort up there.  I felt good one minute and bad the next.  I'm not sure what that is all about.  We'll see what the Thursday run goes like.

oh yes we are starting the hot and humid weather now.  I kind of misjudged the length of the route and came up two tenths short.  But I felt better today.  My shoes came in and I like them so far.

I felt really good for my long run today.  I expanded my route from last Sat.  but I thought I went farther that I did.  And I thought I ran faster.  Not sure if I measured it wrong ot what, but that's ok.  I felt good and finished strong. 

next week I need to get back on the horse...
