 I couldn't decide whether I wanted to run outside or at the gym.  I decided to run at the gym since I didn't hydrate much yesterday and I could have my water handy on the treadmill.  I went to get in the car and the car wouldn't start, soooo I ran outside and I was glad I did.  

I ran in the hood with the temperature about 72 degrees.  Beautiful morning.

Late, tired, hungry...need I say more?

Today was hardly worth logging.  Will get myself together for tomorrow morning.

God must know I need sleep.  I slept through my alarm for 20 minutes this morning.  

I tried doing some fartlek so I wouldn't be late for work.

Went spinning this morning.  It was a tough class but a good start to a busy day.

I am getting better at my evening runs.  I accidentally said, "good morning" to another runner instead of "good evening".  He must have thought I was delirious or something (I know I probably looked it).

Rail Trail again today.  I promised myself that next week I will find a new place for my long run. 

AP: 9:57

10:14, 9:46, 9:33, 9:20, 9:41, 9:33, 9:42, 9:57, 10:07, 10:09, 10:41, 10:46.

You can tell I was running out of steam near the end.  I wonder if it has anything to do with the Nutty Coconut ice-cream I had before bed?
