Just Keep Runnin'

Light jog, barefoot - slow, on the road.

.95 143 10:04.9 (10:37 pace)

.95 149 8:33.2 (9:00 pace)

My knee is feeling a little better!

3.1 151 hr 27:03 barefoot!  Still recovering from the marathon, so I took it a little slow.  I may have gone a little too far for my soft feet - 2 new blisters.  The 4 from last week are toughened skin though!

3.1 158/168 23:45  Played basketball last night, knee feels fine - maybe not 100%, but close enough.  This is the longest that my quads have been sore, they're still a little stiff.

8 168/177 57:38.6 total (7:12 pace)  Up the Canyon to Zanavou (sp?) and back

172 6:45.1

174 6:20.2

1.8 174 12:07.7 (6:44 pace)

Knees feel good.  Pace felt good, maybe a little pushed, but overall a nice run.  Made buttermilk pancakes (best yet) for the family...I think they like waking up to hot breakfast, even if they don't like waking up!

2 158/168 16:13.3 Barefoot!

155 8:49.6 Headwind, uphill (a little)

162 7:23.7 Tailwind, downhill (a little)

Should have gone to bed earlier last night, but I was waiting for bread to rise and cook...1:30 am.

13.6 1:39:11 166/175 7:18 pace.  Up the canyon and back.  I wanted my pace for the 1st half faster than my previous marathon pace (7:54) and for the 2nd half I wanted my pace faster than BQ pace (7:17)...

164 7:58.6

168 7:37.4

2 168 14:57.7 (7:29 pace) turn around - 52:24.2 (7:42 pace for 1st half of run)

168 7:05.0

170 6:57.0

169 6:55.1

170 6:46.5

169 6:36.2

0.8 170 5:30.5 (6:53 pace)

171 6:57.0 - 46:35 (6:51 pace for 2nd half)  There were times in the 2nd half that I felt like I was taking a rest, so mentally I thought I needed to push, but my HR and times were pretty good.  At one time I felt like my legs were tired and it was too far to run this early after the marathon, but it was during the second fastest mile.

After, I made buttermilk pancakes, but I didn't have sour cream so I used strawberry Yoplait - delicious!  Then we drove over the mountain to Eden to get Vibram Five Fingers!!!
