Went for a long run around "Central Park and Times Square" with my ifit. I started slow with a 6.0 pace. I then started changing the pace with the each song. The pattern went 6.5,6.1,6.6,6.2,6.7,6.3,6.8,6.4,6.9,6.5,7.0,6.5,7.2 (last 1.25 miles were at marathon pace of 8.20).
I also tried a few new recipes and baked some healthier "treats" today. I made black bean brownies which are surprisingly good. I also made flourless banana, Greek yogurt, oatmeal breakfast muffins, and flourless peanut butter cookies (a little too much sugar for me). I will definitely make all of them again. |

| Let the half marathon training begin. I did an easy three today with two fairly large hills. I also did a little strength training but will need to do a lot more of that. |

I did three miles .75 uphill and .25 job in between. Each hill interval got faster so the last one was at a 7.5 pace. I also did strength training - arms and abs.

I did a warm up of .59 miles. I then did one easy mile and the last two at 8:34 pace finishing with 8:20 pace.
It as a super busy week with training and conferences so I did not get in as much of a workout as I should have. |

I set out to run 90 minutes. I ran at a pretty slow pace between 9 and 10 minute per mile. At the end I increased speed and ran the final stretch at marathon pace. I was fairly run down and tired this week and could feel it.
I ate a lot more wheat than I have been this week and could tell a difference. Time to go back to cutting that out all together. |

| Sunday was tough. I have been feeling under the weather all week. High temp, low energy. I started with a nice slow run and ended with a brisk walk. Hopefully, I can bounce back this week. |

| I ran the Niagra Falls route on iFit. I struggled again today with energy and temp. I have been really focusing on the Paleo diet but my digestive system and body temp are out of wack. Not sure if it is just a virus or the change in eating. I will give it another weak or two to figure it out. |

| I did hill repeats tonight. I ran seven of them. 300 yards each with 100 yard rest in between. I started at a 5 incline and 6.5. I then continued to increase until I was running a 7 incline at a 7.5 pace. I felt better today. Digestive system is still out of wack. Legs are a little tired. Time to get back to foam rolling. |

| I did 8x400 repeats at 5k pace which was 7.3 minute miles. It was actually fairly slow compared to most of my speed work, but I was extremely tired and happy that I finished it. |

| I did a 40 minute tempo workout. First mile was a warm up. After that I increased speed by .1 every 400 so I was running at a 8 minute pace the last lap. I then cooled down for a half mile. |
