My pace was all out of wack. That is okay b/c my last two miles were faster than the first 4.

 

Loveing the chilly, hating the feeling that I"m getting sick. Chest conjestion stinks. I keep wiping down my work table at work with bleach wipes (the kids are all snotty and then guess where their hands go? yeah ewww)

Okay so the alarm went off at 5 a.m. and I turned it off and slept till 6ish.

All day I considered giving up running. But then thought what else would I do to get rid of my anxiety or just over all stay in some what of a shape?

Well once again I'm going to be an afternoon runner. Winter is coming and it is just going to get colder and darker so I figure afternoons is my best bet.

I have to say the first mile sucked. I had a side kink (oh chocolate during the day is not a good idea; stupid halloween) but the last two were fantastic. I want to get faster.

I"m going to build mileage over the winter to a 1/2 marathon race (nothing in mind yet) and work on speed.

 my speed did get progressively faster over this run. Which is what I"m liking and what I"m used to. Maybe I was just having and off year/summer...I hope fall is bringing better things for my runs.

I woke up earlier originally to set up for my garage sale. Decided it was a glorious day for a run but not for a garage sale. On and off showers all day. but it seems to have only sprinkled. Oh well. Maybe I will just donate my stuff to salvation army. 

 

As I was running I realized there was a race that was being blocked off for. I ran it last year and I think I placed 2nd or 3rd in AG. But it was so cold that day that I went home before finding out that I placed.

I have a 5 K tomorrow. We shall see how it goes.
