This was an interesting run. Did a 1 mile warmup at 8 pace. Wanted to know what my legs could do speed wise so I ran 3 miles @ 18:45. The last mile was a 5:15. A P.R. for me! Wee. Prob not a smart run just 5 days out from the Turkey Race. Oh Well.

Nothing exciting to report about this run. Just an 8pace run. Oh, except I think I am feeling my speedy run from yesterday.

4 hilly miles with husband and Doggie. These runs are slower than I like so I never time them. But it was a fun run and a beautiful day. :)

Turkey Run in Orem. Ran 26:10. Was super cold for me at 25 some odd degrees. I have been a softy lately, running in the warmest hours of the day. Usually around 1pm or so. Shocked my system a little. I felt a bit sick to my stomach after it, and I am not a Throw Up kind of person generally. LOL. Looking back however, I think I could have pushed a bit harder. Out of race practice, wasn't sure on how to pace.

Rest Day. Didn't feel like running anyhow...feel super carbohydrate bloated from eating normal people food yesterday.

Basic 8 pace. Felt I could go faster if I wanted but kept it moderate/lower effort since I plan to bump the miles up this week.

Ran a little over 10 miles this afternoon @ 8:18 pace. I really tried to slow down, and make it "easy" but my legs just don't like it...it feels clunky. Or like I'm prancing in place. Hmmm. But anyhow...Was gorgeous, I wore shorts. Good thing the weather has been good since I don't own any running pants. LOL. Best win the lottery and go buy some gear. I think it odd that I am always the only one running on Sunday in Provo.

Bah! It pains me to run only 3 and to run THIS slow, but I really had to force myself to take an "easy" day. I'm always chomping at the bit, wanting to run more miles and faster. I really need to trust and stick with the program. Was about 30 degrees. These past few weeks I have been getting side stitches on even the easiest runs, because I'm struggling breathing normally in the cold. (It has been YEARS since I have even had a side stitch.) I figure I will acclimate soon enough. OH, pace was 8:40. DON'T mock me..I did it on purpose. LOL
