Total Distance

6.00

So today did not feel very good at all, my plan was to run 6 but too pick up my pace in the middle to about 8:30 - 9:00 mm. Needless to say that did not happen. Then to top it off I don't know what I was thinking when I packed my gym bag this morning, but I was obnoxiously overdressed for the weather. There was a nice breeze though that made it so I didn't totally die. By the last couple of mile I was feeling a bit better.

6 miles - 56:13

laps: 9:10 (I think my garmin was not right, because this mile hurt the most) 9:44 (surprised it was not over 10:00) 9:28, 9:39, 9:14, 8:58.

Night Sleep Time: 8.00	Nap Time: 0.00	Total Sleep Time: 8.00

That run looks good to me :) I am sorry you are not feeling well.

This morning was 30 degrees. You probably packed just right, except we live in CRAZY Utah!!! :)

Well, you did get under 9:00 for that last mile.

I hope you get feeling better. I'm dragging a bit myself today.

Marion, I'm sure you are right, there was frost on the cars this morning, but man it was warm by the time I ran.

Carolyn, my legs did start to loosen up a bit towards the end, so I picked up the pace. I probably should have done a few more miles, but I hope that will be good.

Perhaps you are still recovering; you just raced, right? I'm sure you'll bounce back soon. :)

Nice job with a negative split when you're feeling crappy!! Ahhh, aren't we loving the Utah weather ?!? I just wish it would decide to be spring or winter - not switch every day.
