Monday, 07-18-2011 6 miles steady around Inner Harbor in 43:30 Tuesday, 07-19-2011 6.15 miles steady out to Rockburn Branch Park in 40:15 * 7:28, 6:54, 6:39, 6:46, 6:31, 5:53 (avg. 6:41/mile pace)... started off walking, definitely tired and fatigued, but decided to run comfortably, just easy and without effort/pain. It's a tough 10km course, so hit the turnaround and started the climb back home. Started opening up nicely on the way home and final mile... still fat, but no worries, am adjusting diet. Wednesday, 07-20-2011 8.56 miles steady down Beechwood up Bonnie Branch in 58:02 * 7:45, 6:57, 6:49, 6:42, 7:13, 6:43, 6:18, 6:12, 5:55 (avg. 6:46/mile pace)... very nice run, once again, am on Irish time and woke at 5:30AM to get in this run before a stacked day at work. The weather was a beautiful 72-degrees and although I was tired, I put on my new pairs of Charge RC as I had a great initial 6M run with them on Monday. Worked hard last night on my right hip flexo...
