I met Ben and Matt at the pond at 5:15. We warmed up three miles and then did our workouts. I paced Ben on the first four miles. Goal pace was 5:27. Quick pit stop after the first four and then set out on second set. I planned to go quite a bit faster, but just didn't have it. The extra weight I've put on is really slowing me down. I feel so out of shape since Chicago. Workouts that were relatively easy just a month ago and kicking my butt right now. It's kind of discouraging. Anyway, splits below:

Set One: 5:28, 5:27, 5:25 5:23

Set Two: 5:10, 5:22, 5:19, 5:17

PM: 4 miles easy in the first snow storm of the year, avg pace 7:08/mile.

Your weight will settle once your mileage is more consistent for a few weeks. Keep at it.
