Drove down to DC to move my brother there. So, I planned this amazing run in DC. However, I fell asleep at 12:30am only to wake up at 2:30am and not fall back asleep until 6:30am. Needless to say, it was extremely frustrating!

Hard run! I was supposed to do 10 min warm up, 30 min at 3% incline @ 9:10 m/mile, 10 min cool down.

This is what I mustered:

10 min warm up @ 6.2 mph flat
35 min @ 3% incline @ 9:50 m/mile
10 min coold down @ 6.2 mph flat

I miscalulated and accidentally went over but 9:10 was just a little too muchk, so I kept the same incline and just slowed down the pace.

Tough run! Ugh! I tried to do my old hill run workout, I had to step it down quite a few notches. But I did it, I got up to 7% incline both times, but I was a lot slower, as can be seen from my mileage total. :)

Tough run, my throat was very flegmy and today I was definitely low on energy, not a lot, just enough.

This was tough, I recovered enough to do the next surge but I was taxed.

0 - 10 min @ 6.3 mph
@ 10 min 1:30 min @ 8.9 mph (6:44 m/mile)
@ 18 min " " "
@ 26 min " " "
@ 34 min " " "
@ 42 min " " "
@ 50 min " " "
50 - 63 min @ 6.3 mph (barely able to finish)

Nice run. 45 min then 4 strides @ 11.0 mph.

Lots of energy but low on calories - kind of an oxymoron right?

I started the Virgin Diet and I feel amazing! However, I do need a few more calories or maybe at the right times. How do have tons of energy but lack calories? Well, I did today on my run and I could feel the difference. I think I need to have 1/2 of my snack before my run and the other half after the run.

Good to start up again!

Slow, easy run. It has been 7 days since I last ran! Wow! That is a record, the longest I haven't worked out has been about 4 days. I must have needed it! Today's run felt great!
