AEROBIC BUILDER

I met up with Dave and Ken at Smith's for an aerobic builder. Dave and I planned to run just under 6:00 pace for five miles then throw in a fast mile to finish. It went better than we anticipated with splits of 5:54 5:50 5:50 5:42 5:44 and 5:25 to finish for an avg of 5:44. Total pace for the entire run was 6:23. After we headed to the gym and did core and hip exercises and some pushups.

SEMI-LONG RUN - PROGRESSION

I met up with Jon, Taylor, Denver, Dave, and Ben at the Flying J off the 21st Street Exit to go for a run out in West Haven. We ended up doing a progression for the first 10 miles and then a one-mile cool down. Overall pace for me was 6:28. Splits: 7:28, 6:59, 6:56, 6:53, 6:40, 6:25, 6:01, 5:43, 5:33, 5:22, then 7:03 for cool down. Once I got home I did core and hip exercises, pushups, and some dips.

I feel like I'm slowly getting stronger each week. The road back to fitness is certainly a long one, but it's an enjoyable ride.
