Need to get my watch but I ran 6 miles down past Redlands airport. I am so used to running on the treadmill now that the miles go by much slower when I am outside. I need some running buddies and better scenery!

10.05 miles OUTSIDE! Went out with the intention of running 8ish, but the skies were overcast and I felt decent so I figured I might as well get a couple more miles in. 1:18:43 overall time, 7:50 pace. Rolling hills.

15 mile long run with 8 miles at a faster pace. I was aiming for 7:00 pace on the faster portion. My legs were a bit fatigued. First week over 45 miles (53 total!).

Ran 4 miles (avg 8:00 approx), then began the tempo miles 4-12. Splits: 6:53, 7:01, 7:02, 6:59, 7:07, 7:14, 7:08, 6:58. The first 5 miles had a slight downhill, and then when it flattened out I began to struggle. But I made it. 3 miles easy back home. Last 1.5 miles I felt so dehydrated. Going to have to try to figure out how to get some water in on these long runs.

Average pace overall: 7:38, 1:54:35 overall time.

2 mile warmup. 8x400 at 80-82 pace with 200 jog between each (approx 90 sec). We got a downpour about 1.5 hours before my workout, and the dirt track I go too was sloppy and wet. And I waited for Cam to get home so I wouldn't have to do the workout on the treadmill, and he ended up not getting home until after 7. I get nervous when it gets dark here, so I warmed up, did 5x400 on the track, did the next 3 on the streets on the way home, cooled down for a mile, then did another 2 mile cooldown on the treadmill. So humid I could wring out my tank top when I was done.

1:22, 1:22, 1:22, 1:23, 1:24, 1:23, 1:22, 1:28 (slightly uphill)
