Tough run on the treadmill today, didn't think I was going to make it. Felt good when I was done though
10 Miles - 1:34:00 - 9:24 Pace
I felt much better today, my throat was till a little iffy, but it didn't slow me down to much. The legs felt good, no pain, other than the usual after a long run. About mile 8 my lungs did start filling up with fluid or something, and I started hacking, but I was able to get through. This was a big step with the Riverbank coming up, I had to get some work back in after that sick week I had.
1 Mile - 9:15 - 9:15 Pace
I have been sick as a dog since returning from Mexico, today is the first day I have felt even close to runnable. So I went to the gym and tried, about 3/4 of a mile in, my lungs said forget this and I started hacking up everything known to man...so 1 mile was all I had today.

I am pretty much guessing on all those times and distances, the treadmill in Cancun was in kilometers, so I started with a pace that felt like my normal running pace, and then jumped it up to a pace that I felt was an Interval pace........your guess is as good as mine. I did have a great view of the ocean while running though, the window in front of me was right on the beach, and the waves were just crashing in.
9 Miles - ?????? - 9:00 Pace????
My watch died on me about 1 mile into this run, so I am not sure how long it took me, I am guessing about 81 minutes. This run was tough, first time with all these big hills, on such a far run, on the hard sidewalks. Made it through, but my knees were sore, my hip flexors were really sore from the hills. Lungs were good though. I might not run again till this weekend, depending on how sore my knees are.
3.1 Miles - 22:06 - 7:08 Pace
First race of the year.......actually, first race in like a year and a half. Lots of jitters, butterflies and whatnot. It felt really good to be in the mix again. Wasn't sure how fast I was going to run, I was thinking 7:25 pace, but I had no clue, I haven't run faster than a 7:43 pace in forever. But, when we started, I just took a pace that felt good, and that pace started at 6:55. Mile two slowed that though with a few hills. But the last mile I finished pretty strong. It was a good indication of where I am at...which is no where, my lungs were struggling, and my legs were struggling, lots of work to do.
All in all, great day though.
9 Miles Easy - 83:00 - 9:15 Pace
Long run today, felt good, knee was a little sore, we shall see how that goes, I also started taking Glucosamine pills, I have heard that there is a lot of inconclusive evidence about it, but nothing harmful.....so I figured it's worth a shot.
Probably going to take the rest of the week off the rest the knee, got my first race in over a year ad a half on Satruday...yee haw.

The tempo part of my run felt really good, but I was burned out afterwards, and the last mile just wasn't there for my lungs or my legs
4 Miles "Easy" - 32:56 - 8:14 Pace
Another run outside today, and again I ran way too fast. I felt really good on this run, the hills were a little tough, not used to those, and my lungs struggled a little, but all in all it went well. The speed I ran at it was kind of a half tempo run.
