Today was a recovery day. After the death paced warm up, led by Talon. It started out normal, but then he started speeding up. The competitive side of me refused to be one uped. So I started going even faster, and so Reagen did too. We all have pacing problems. :) Galley then sent us on a two mile recovery run. However, Reagen and I took the pace faster so we could get a better workout in. We averaged 8:00 according to Reagen's watch and my phone. It actually felt super good. I've noticed that the tempos have started to feel a lot better than the long runs have. I'm thinking it's probably just an endurance thing. After the run, Galley led us in some core. I plan on doing more later.

So Reagen and I decided to run at four. There had been a small snow storm, but we thought ehh, it's been light all day. It got worse. We should have known better. We still managed to get a good amount of mileage at a good pace. I felt really good. I could have gone farther I think.

So today was long run day! My favorite day!¡!¡! After a mile warm up, Reagen and I set out for our six mile run. We wanted to do more but Coach Hill told us to back off on the miles, so we did. Anyways, it was super cold. The snow had all melted away luckily, it was just a nice cool 36 degrees. I am definitely going to have to run in the afternoons from now on.

I felt really good throughout the whole run. It was nice to get a proper distance run in. I did a seven miler on Monday too, but it was in the morning. I had somewhere to be so I opted to skip warm up and cool down. I regretted that later. I didn't do that today though, I learned my lesson.

Roadkill Statistics:

Birds: 1  Cats: 0   Prarie Dogs: 0  Flying Sharks: 0 (although sharks are cool, and Reagen and I are cool and we sort of fly so 2, but we are still alive) Rabbits: 0   Scary cows that stare into the depths of your souls and are quietly judging you: 20ish?

Today was a short and sweet run. I ran from my house to the park. I'm not sure what the pace was but it felt fast. I didn't warm up or cool down, which I really need to do. But I felt super good on my run. I hit that point where even though your out of breath, you just feel amazing. I wish all of my runs felt like that.
