Ran 7 miles at a 9:06 pace. I went out and 8:30 at night. Ran steady for the first five miles. Took a little breather when I made it to the top of the hill. Positive is that I made it all the way up the hill and kept a 9:15 pace up the hill after four miles. Last mile was the fastest at a 8:45 pace. Did not take any water for the run. Had a chocolate milk after the run.

 

Earlier in the day I biked 4 miles. A few small hills and the hill by my house. Overall, it was a pretty easy bike ride.

Did  tempo run. Averaged 8:54 pace as I had a half mile warm-up and cool down. I increased pace with each quarter mile until I was at marathon pace or faster.

3.15 at a 9:05 pace. Run was hard with the heat and my hips/legs were sore after going to the chiropractor and getting worked on. Finished strong with the last mile at 8:50. Need to push myself harder to get through the runs.

14.1 miles at 9:24 pace. Quickest miles were mile 3 and 15 with paces of 8:54 and 8:53. Slowest mile was through Flandrau with the hills and trails. I also did steep hills by Hoffmann Rd, HWY 14, coming out of Flandrau, and up the Schells Road. Felt good to run in the rain. First mile was the slowest. Hip felt decent for most of the run. Need to take in more water.

Slow recovery miles with interval training in between. I worked on back, glutes, and hip flexors trying to loosen up some of the problem areas in my lower back and hips.
