TR 22 So we'll call it 7 whats 8 hundreths among friends anyway.  lol  Good run, a little breeze, great temp maybe 60 degrees?  Whatever it was; I felt good and averaged 8:44 per mile.  Now if I can just keep that pace for another 19.2 miles it will be awesome!  Whats really encouraging is that this is the same run I ran last Monday and averaged 9:14 per mile.  I'm way ahead of where I was last year at this time.  SWEET!

TR 23 Seven at noon.  It was a showdown between fatigue and will power.  Even though I averaged 9:13 we'll call it a win for willpower.  I was tired after the first mile.  I can't believe a two mile run at top speed can take soo much out of you.  Glad to make it oh and by the disturbing weigh, I am at 206 lbs!  What a fatty! Geesh  Hence the change of the blog name.

1/2 portion of grilled Salmon for the fat guy!

So rest day #2 maybe a cross trainer.  Yesterday I woke up with a shin splint feeling on my left leg.  I think I'll wait til it subsides to run again.  BOO!!!

TR 24  Shut the front door.  What a hellacious run.  10:15 AVP I started out very tentative with my shin ( no issues there :) but my hamstrings were sore (from gardening) so it was a slow going run. I hit the wall on mile six and actually walked twice (stupid mental weakness) Hope tomorrow is better!

TR 25 What a difference between today and yesterday.  I felt good even on the hills (mile 2-3).  8:49 AVP it was a very good boost to my confidence after a crappy monday!  It's three hours after my run and I still feel great!

TR27 So it was flipping hot!!! I couldn't make it out til 11:00, and then my dumb brain says "hey stupid you should run 8 today in the heat and see if you can take it"  and the Barney in me say "Challenge Accepted".  So yeah I ran a very slow, sweaty, painful, hyperventilating, run.  What an idiot.  9:54 AVP

TR 28 I decided to just run 4 miles because I was kinda in a rush.  8:29 AVP which sounds ok until you figure I ran an 8:31, 8:52, 8:17, 7:59.  It took forever for my body to loosen up.  Glad its done!

TR29 same 8 that killed me last Tuesday.  much better today.  i averaged 9 straight up.  not bad considering 2 and 3 were almost 10s.  i got intona funky rythm at 4 and av about 8:25 from there on out.  Happy tuesday!  

Whole Salmon gutted and cooked over a fire with a little lemon juice added.  veggies in tin foil cooked in the coals probably best with a good bourbon.

TR 30 Nice and easy 6.  I've decided to start going up the hill at mile 2 everyday.  It was a serious but kicker today.  It made my second mile 10:29 (yeah I walked a little).  But I was able to recover and finish out fairly strong with Mile 6 at a 7:55 pace.  Overall I averaged 9 minute miles but I stopped and walked for about 30 seconds while I drank some water on mile 5.
