the not so fast running blog

4.2 miles, 48:29, 11:24 pace. 11.15/11.06/12.53/10.43/10.01 pace. Still really sore in the quads from hip hop. Did the GWA loop. Ran the first two miles, walked for .3 and ran the rest. Pretty slow going with these quads. Alone today cuz Brynn was doing a 7 miler to get ready for the half, which I am not doing. 

Dave and Susan got here last night. Clyde is headed out golfing and I'm headed to work.  

BH loop cut short with Brynn. She kept going but I was done. 

hip hop after a long absence. so sore the next couple days! 

It was 35 and foggy this morning. We did the St James loop back on the trail and then added another .8 to get to 5. We hit some ice below the Glendennings but the weather was pretty nice. 5.03 miles, 55:17, 11 min pace. 10.50/11.32/11.08/11.23/10.08. I made Brynn slow down for me today and then we walked a lot less. These mile splits are much better considering we walked a few times but just not for long. I feel like I got a better workout too. My legs are feeling it. Our last mile was pretty speedy for me, we were under 10 most times I looked at my watch. 

Trail, larkspur, St. James 4 miler with Brynn. I am still not caught up on running so I have to walk a lot. I think I would do better to just run slower and then maybe I could run more. When we run we still go pretty fast so it kicks my butt. It was supposed to rain/snow this morning so it was cloudy and a little warmer. We both had to shed our jackets. 45:57, 11:28 pace. 10.37/12.41/10.58/11.35. We were going under 10 min pace at times while running and then I would have to walk. I think I need to try doing a slower pace all around and trying not to walk so much. Another busy week. :(
