 Today was a good Monday run. Longer than I would have liked, but that is what you get when you run with other people...not much of an option. We ran up Monte Berico which was nice to get more hills in. That is something my running could use.

Today's run felt good. A little Officer PT. We finished only running 3 miles, so I ran the 4th on my own. Met up with Heather and the boys for a minute, she had just fininshed running. It was a good morning.

Felt really good today. Ran a little bit faster, and gave it a good .5 mile or so kick at the end.

Another great Saturday run. Today was a fast run. It wasn't intentional, but I just found myself running in the low 7s and even the high 6s. My body just wanted to run fast today. I tried to relax a little, but ended up just going with it.

7:57   7:16   6:53   6:58  = 7:16 AP 

   That last mile I tried to back off because I was feeling pretty tired, but within about a .10 of a mile, I was back running in the 6s again... I guess just one of those days.
