3 miles at lunch

The air was thick and warm, but it felt good to go out running in the middle of the day. It is apparent that my conditioning is way below what it should be, but with 14 weeks left before my next half marathon, there is optimism...

5 miles in 51:37; RnR Half in 15 weeks

I went nice and slow to get legs ready for an increase in mileage. The weather was perfect at the start of the run, but warmed up quite a bit on the way back. Nevertheless, my pace maintained throughout.

26:08 out and 25:29 back.

Weight: 227 pounds...I am aiming for 212 pounds by the time RnR comes around.

12 miles in 2:07:30

1:03:26 out and 1:04:04 back. Almost dead even splits which is good for pace consistency, but time is not so good. Today was warmer than I would have preferred in the 60s...I hope the marathon in 2 weeks is not as warm.

7 miles in 1:07:53

Well, definitley not my best run at this distance (1:02:53 last year) but given the wind an my lack of conditioning, this was not so bad. I did get tired on the way back as i was fighting the wind; i stopped about 4 times which does not make me too happy. Grade B-

Splits (out in 33:48, back in 34:05); mile by mile (9:30, 9:36, 9:40, 9:50, 9:50, 10:00, 9:47)
