Trying to run all 365 days this year as the New Years res. so I can't give in all ready. Ran 10 in 59:15, progressive with the first 2 in around 6:15 pace. Been awhile since I have done any strength type stuff.

AM: Meet the crew at Lake Hefner at 7:30. Did 4 mile warm up then started a hour progression run. Windy out at the lake (go figure) ran the first 30 in around 5:50s with a tail wind for the most part, second 30 was in a nasty head wind and wasnt feeling the 530 range for long. Did about 8 miles of a harder effort pace, then cooled down with connor and jason to get the 18 for the day. Nice mileage before noon.

Wind Gusts in some areas around 25mph, but also got some help on the back stretch with that wind. Nice long cool down with jason and matthew for more mileage to make up the lack of miles yesterday. Nice several hours out in the sun. Felt good.

Am: thursday morning "independant study time" rocks! Did my workout already and got the run in and done for the day. Warmed up 2 miles then 5 miles at 5:33 pace, felt pretty tired towards the end. Probably from last nights later/longer run. THen 2 mile recovery, then 4 miles at 5:38 pace with a mile Cd. Overall pretty tired from the run im assuming last night. But good effort overall, and glad to be done with the workout for the day before 10:30. Might and strong might, do an easy 3 and core workout tonight.
