running

Worked all weekend so not much time or energy for a run.  Did 4 at 8:20 pace.  Between tired legs, lack of sleep, 85 degrees and 100% humidity this wasn't easy.

Last couple at 9 min mile pace.  Pretty easy run.  running 9:25 was feeling effortless.  Thats nice.

Was not feeling good today. Could have pushed through a few more miles but since I was going so slow it didn't seem all that beneficial. Tomorrow is another day.

Glad I took it easy yesterday.  I was able to do the run I wanted today which was I think more important than another slow 8 miler.  2 mile warm up and then 6 miles at 8:18 average pace.  Other than the 1 slightly downhill mile I was within a couple of seconds for each one.  It felt hard but I could have kept going.  Not sure if i could keep going for another 7 miles but we shall see.  One mile cool down.

Still not feeling great physically.  Whole family is complaining of back to school malaise - sore throats, headaches, tired.  Will try to get some extra sleep this weekend and shake it off.

Not sleeping great. Kids back to school schedule is throwing everything off. This week wasn't a great week milage wise but perhaps I needed an easier week. Today's run was ok but I had to be back early to get kids up for soccer so had to cut it a little shorter than I planned. I really have nothing to complain about. Kids are great. Running is going well.
