Felt good first 5 miles, then really heavy legs.  Lacking endurance from recent illness and having to take basically 3 weeks off.  Need to build enduance again.

2.5 mile pacing for cool down

Felt good overall, increased distance in track work-out by 1/2 mile.  Legs felt really good, feeling stronger and improved quality of pacing.  Feeling like a breakthru is coming soon!!

Felt great, particularly at the start.  Usually a little sluggist at start of run but took off with a good pace (7:10 1st mile) and was able to push past.  My fastest 10k in 10 years!!

2.5 mile tempo run home

Felt good today, just ending illness (again), was sluggish on 1200 and 800, 400 are feeling good. Goal was to hit 90 each lap, no faster, no slower.
