5 Miles (Monday and Wednesday)

Early this week I did a short 5 mile run on two different days. It's part taper but mainly I got backed up with work.

4.6: Friday fun run

Yesterday I ran 4.6 miles. This run was limited again by work. However, I should be cutting back a bit on miles away so I guess it was fine. It was a good run. I didn't push it since the last few runs have been in high gear.  Taking the weekend off, both to rest and because I'm on full time kid duty.

5 miles: Running is going well

Today I ran into town and back. The standard Starbuck's run. My running is going very well right now. I ran 20 yesterday and was stuck in 4th gear in today's fast run. My legs are feeling fine. I wish I had more time to run even more but maybe it's good that I don't right now.

20.4 Miles: Not so scary

Today I ran 20.4 miles. It was a good run. The weather is finally really good for running. You can tell the weather is good for running then it's sunny and you don't mind. The photo above was taken around mile 8 on the map below.

4.5 miles: Busy Boy

Today I did and easy short run. It was based on the limited time I had today for a run. The plan is for a long run (15+) tomorrow.

6.2 Miles: Water bill run

Today I did the water bill run. I saved a stamp by running over to the dropbox for them and then running home. It was just an easy run. I did not push it on purpose after running a good pace yesterday and it still being close to the last marathon. I felt good, legs a bit tired but about what is to be expected at this point.

10.5 miles: Great run

Today I ran 10.5 miles. I took off yesterday mainly because I was a bit behind in work. 

It was cool this morning and great pace run.
