not giving up on the comeback

It was 61 degrees so I just had to go out for a few recovery miles.  I felt really no issues after the long run yesterday.  

 4.2 miles in around 7:20 pace 

felt good
some jerk slid through a righthand turn lane and missed taking me out at the knees by two inches...other than that I was fine

4.4 7:07 pace 

after work -- felt strong

4.45 7:05 pace

tempo day - 4 miles this week

 I took it out too fast - more like 10k race pace- oh well.

turns out i don't know how to work a lap counter on a stop watch...I know the first was right, that's about it.  
1st - 5:56 ( hit it once at first mile)
13:05 ( hit it again at the turnaround which is a little past mile 2)
14:02 ( hit is at mile 3)
4:20 ???? (hit another lap and stopped it at mile 4).         

 stopped it at the end and it said 24:19 -  ave pace 6:05 I guess.  I have now idea what those split times mean though. 

Went out at lunchtime for a few.  I felt ok - 

4.55 7:24 pace

after work - took it easy -didn't really want to go out but i felt good enough when running

5.9 - 7:36/mile

I wanted to go out at 11 this morning but my boy got sent home sick from school, so I went out after they got some supper.  It messed with my food planning but it all worked out a bit.  

I felt good.  I was a little tired but that is what happens at the end of the day...
the weather is nice today - trying to rain and abuot 70.  :)
I did the same route as last week with the .75 mile steep hill.  Last week the big hill kicked my butt and i paid for it afterwards, but tonight there was some payback.  I just kept going and going.

a true recovery run for me -my legs are a little tight after the good 10 last night. 

72 degrees and overcast - got to love it 

4.6 - 7:50 pace

It is a really good weather this morning for running.  I got out nice and early for me - 7AM.  My legs were creaky the whole way and it wasn't easy.  But I kept them moving and actually managed a nice negative split without really trying to do so.  
Just took my water bottle with water

lI had lots of energy - had mexican for dinner last night  :)
1:08:25 at the turnaround 

18 miles 7:31 pace  - just looked at the same run last year at this time - it was nearly exactly the same pace 7:33- weird
