Feeling better but not 100%. I didn't want to go run long so I decided on a track workout. It went pretty good but I cut one 800 out at the end as I was feeling pretty fatigued. My first 1200 felt great but I seemed to fade after that. I know I need to do more of this type workout. I promise to do so in the future. :-) I actually like the faster track stuff!

Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

Fairly sucessful 20 mile run but I do think I'm a little behind in my training. The weather just hasn't cooperated very well and I'm not as tough as Joe is to be able to train right through it.
