running

I was happy to finish this one. Legs were sore yesterday and I ended up cutting my run short to hopefully be able to do this one. Started out slowly and nothing hurt so managed to get it done. After ten miles my watch kept giving me a distance alert. Don't know why. A boredom alert was more appropriate. Only ran last mile at marathon pace., but did get the distance in.

Pretty slow today. Tired from yesterday still. Running 16 miles then 8 hours at the beach.

Legs still a little sluggish. Do I wait until everything feels good before I try to push faster? Decided that if I am training to improve things aren't consistently gonna feel great until it's time to race. So did some intervals at 8 min pace. Workout overall was pretty easy.

20 weeks until philly marathon. I could probably benefit from a plan. None of them fit where I am and where I want to go. Guess I should find something close and modify it. As summer vacations approach I need to make sure my long runs are in the schedule.

Easy. Legs felt pretty good. Last mile 8:16

Nothing fancy just getting in the miles. Slow and steady. Nothing hurting, but hot and humid no zip. Last one at 7:57.

I ran as hard as I could in the heat and the sun and that was just the best I had today. I slowed down in the end but so did everyone else. No one passed me last 2 miles. But I dropped off the 8 min pace I was running. It was a hilly, sunny and hot course. I would like to think that I can run 8 min miles for a 10k. Today though I had 4.5 miles at that pace then I was just done. Sides were crampy for most of the race.

The advantage of being old is that time still won a pie.
