Felt pretty good today. I took some time yesterday to see how my runs were progressing at this same time last year. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I'm in the same range, distance- and time-wise, this year. I also noted that I was feeling a bit beat up and run down at the same point in last year's training cycle. Not unlike how I'm feeling now. Great news! I must be on track.

Decent run given the eight-hour turnaround since last night's run. However, I was feeling pretty gassed the last couple of hard sets.
Have to confess to only running hard for 90 seconds during my first set. I screwed up and didn't check my watch closely before starting. It was still set for last week's 90 second bursts rather than today's 2 minute bursts. Duh!

Didn't run this morning due to Cameron's Senior Awards Ceremony. After a late day in the office, stopped at Memorial Park for a couple of loops. Just looking to add to my weekly mileage. Saw Josh at the park. He must have been doing speed work since the first time I saw him, he just few past me.

Felt pretty good this morning. That was a bit surprising since both knees had soreness under the kneecap after Saturday's run and throughout yesterday.
Saucony Fastwitch 3's arrived in the mail Friday. I plan to break them out for tomorrow's treadmill run. They're light ... like 7.3 ounces light!
