Today I ran 9 miles at a 7:08 pace in 1:04 on a very cold morning. The temperature was 38 degrees when I left the house. I mostly ran a flat course today with a little up and down hill. The wind was kicking up to which made it difficult to keep my hat on. I'll do some sort of tempo run tomorrow.

 The Cowboys are undefeated 3-0.  I'm an addicted Cowboys fan.

I did a 5 mile tempo/marathon pace sort of run today.  I had to wear my Under Armour tights today because the temperature was 33 degrees. NO NO NO BACK TO COLD WEATHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I just needed to get that out.  I'm not ready for cold weather because , 1.  It takes more time to get ready in the mornings.  2.  No matter what kind of gloves I have on my hands still freeze.  3.  The motivation factor is less.  4. How can you get a suntan.  That's why I bought a treadmill to run more inside this year.

Tempo run
6:38, 6:14 (warm-up miles)
5:51 (felt okay)
5:53  (felt okay again)
5:52  (I don't remember how I felt)
5:48  (Going uphill on this one and I pushed harder and the effort felt hard)
5:56  ( I think the effort felt hard on this one where it probably shouldn't have)
6:46, 6:26 (cold down)

Overall I'm not real pleased.  The effort should have felt easier, but it didn't feel that way.  Maybe I'm feeling the effects of the previous Marathon's.  Right now I don't know how I'm going to approach the next marathon.  I know with my runs left before October 5th, I'm going to cut the intensity down a little.

Today I ran 8.3 miles with the dog at a overall pace of 7:05 in 58.51 minutes. I ran up the standard Satterfield climb then turned around and ran home. I didn't push with much intensity today since it was an easy run day. I did one mile at 6:06 and two others at 6:24, 6:31.

It was 32 degrees when I left my house to run. It's definitely colder this year than this time last year. I wonder what STG is going to be like on Oct. 6th?

I still don't have a clue what my real goal will be for STG.

Today I got up late, because I was up till 12am, but it was worth it. I've started a relationship with my Biological dad who I've never seen until now (36 years) my whole life. They came over for pizza along with my half-brother and two half-sisters that I've never meet either until last week. The relationship is going well. Long story why I've never seen my biological dad. But this is the third time we've gotten together this week. Back to running

Getting up late made me want to do a faster run 7.6 miles at an overall pace 6:26 in 49.22. I did a real hilly run up around Olympus Drive, down Booth Rd. and then down Hiline Rd. I guess you could call this a mini tempo where I had three split in a row of 5:47, 5:45, 5:59. I didn't look at my watch, because I wanted to go by feel. This is something Sasha as talked to me about by running by feel and not by your watch. I really thing this is a good concept to try. I'll I can say is Sasha really has good advice, because it felt so easy not worrying about the time.

AM: I ran 12.30 miles at a 6:51 pace in 1:24. Mainly on a rolling course that had a decent 2 mile downhill, and the first 3 miles were uphill and I took them slow. I did a few fast miles towards the end of the run (6:07, 6:09, 6:32) these were mainly downhill. This was a very good rolling course to run. I might run later today at lunch with the dog.

I'm leaving for Jackson Hole today with the family for my daughter's soccer tournament so I will run my Saturday run there. The weather is suppose to be cold and a high chance that we could see some snow. I will probably only do 6-7 miles tomorrow.

 

 Lunch:  I ran 4.3 miles with the dog at a 7:18 pace.  Nothing special about this run other than it was warmer than it's been the last few days, but the wind was blowing at about 20mph.

Today I ran in Jackson Hole, what a beautiful place to run in, and also beneficial running in the higher altitude. I ran 8.1 miles in a 6:45 overall pace in 54:53. Last three miles I hit MP (6:12, 6:08, 613).

We are here for a soccer tournamment. I told my daughter she better win, because it's very cold here and suppose to snow.
