Went out around 9pm for 6 miles and was able to get in 4.5 before I hit the wall. The week is catching up with me--still thankful to get a run in!

Nice Job:
Sometimes it is just so HARD, isn't it? But getting 4.5 miles down when you are tired and it feels hard is really more of an accomplishment than running 6 miles when it feels relatively easy.

alright 'round the neighborhood 3.1 mi 00:36 11:37 pace
Ooooh! That was hot and tough—a (2 min hard/1 min easy) 5K to launch MCM marathon training. 5 week warm up plan (RW Smart Coach) and then a 4 month RW training plan. Time to get back in the game :))
-
I kind of made up the warmup plan :)) I always need a plan for running or I slack! So, I determined where I should be when I start the marathon plan and just worked back from there (using RW smart coach which is cool). And yes..need to embrace the heat. Oh boy, I better start telling myself that in my sleep!!! Thanks so much for your support!
