Six miles in the early morning. Felt pretty sluggish I couldn't seem to get any mojo going at all. Later went to the gym for 30 min XT + core.

Went out around 10am with Kim. After 2 mile warm we did a couple miles around 7:50 (nice job Kimi!!) then parted ways and I got in a couple more sub-7 miles and a cooldown mile.

Day off from running but I did get to the gym for 30 min XT + core and I hope to get outside in the sun for a walk a little later this afternoon.

Went out around 10am for my hill workout. Overcast but pretty warm in the mid 40's. Felt pretty good running the hills. On the last mile back home I noticed my overall ave pace was just behind the 8-min dude so I sped up just enough to catch him. Probably my first sub-8 overall run since fall.

Out bright & early for an 18-miler. A bit nippy but not much wind and sun came out towards the end. Too bad the hamstring bum-itis flared up a bit, just need to keep the pace around 9 min/mile to keep it happy it seems.
