Three easy miles to get back into the swing of things after a long weekend of eating junk and staying up too late.

I did the speed workout today and rested on Wednesday. I was sore and super tired Wednesday after the speed work and power yoga.

I did 9 x 400 repeats. Started with 7:30 pace and did the last 4 increasingly faster so I ended with 7.04 pace. I also did a 30 minute power yoga workout today. 

Mile warm-up...walked a lap for cool down.

I ran outside today. Temps were good, but it was fairly windy. I think I went out too fast. My first mile felt good and clocked at 8.07. My second mile was around 8.23. My watch quit working after that so I am not sure what my pace was; however, I did stop several times and struggled with the hill. I only made it half way up. My goal is to run without stopping, adjust speed if needed, and make it up the hill.

3/3 for this workout. I made it through the entire thing without stopping, conquered several hills, and ran the last mile faster than the first two. Average pace was 8.32. Average for the last was 8.20 and under.
