Run 67

Running totals: 568 (80K)

Daily Stats: Early morning, warm, damp, 7.15 K, 33:52, 4:38 min/k.

Description: I was feeling pretty good after an off day. So after a pretty good warm up and one false start I got off to a pretty quick start. The first 2 k I was going at about 5 min/k. Had some stretches in the low 420's. However, it was not a race pace. Definitely up tempo maybe 80%. Plan to do some intervals tomorrow.

Run 58

Running Total: 496 K (8 K)

Daily Stats: 8k, morning, cool, sunny/overcast.

Description: Was meant to be a slow pace run, didn't even take the watch. However, the fact that I could be racing in a little over a month is hard to let go of. So it was meant to be a slow run but it was half slow half tempo. Put on the new shoes today. Felt really really good. My feet were starting to feel tired and my calves were getting tight all the time. So with the change over to the new shoes we will see if the 500K limit is true. Tomorrow should be a true slow run as Sunday will be my individual 10 K race. Looking to crack 44 min. Fingers crossed.

Could have worn a long sleeve today. Will think about either the jacket or the vest for tomorrow.
