20.32 miles

I ran about 2 miles to meet up with Kris and then we started running together.  With yesterday's 9 and change, I wasn't to amped up for the long run, but as the miles and conversation passed, we started moving along decently.  This is definitely an honest route with nice climbs and rolling terrain.  Kris even showed me where he ran into "Boston" Billy Rodgers on his run yesterday.  It was on a hill no less!  The guy still gets out there and gets after it at 68 years old!  After Kris turned off torwards his house and I continued on torwards mine, I started to bonk a bit.  I sucked down a GU and kept going.  I made it back to my driveway and was done.  7:22 avg.   Or so I thought........

4.62 mile walk

With my best friend and wife!  It felt good to flush out some lactic acid and keep moving. We saw two hawks having a little tussle up on the roof of a house and then it moved to a tree. Really cool.

5 miles

Tempo fail. 6:48, 7:11, 6:28, 7:08, 6:33. I thought that I would jump right into a tempo with no easing in. Big mistake. The first mile which wasn't all that fast killed me. I backed off for the second and then hit the third mile which was mostly down hill faster. Then backed off again from feeling like I was working too hard. I sped up again for the last mile which started uphill and finished down/flat. Overall 6:50 avg, but not pleased with the inconsistent nature of the workout or my wimpiness.
