Training Run - Easy/Hard 40 minutes

Started out with 10 minutes at an easy pace, then 25 minutes at high intensity and finished with 5 minutes at an easy pace.  Tough day today.  Trying to save myself for the 13 mile run on Saturday!

Weather was in low 50's, overcast, and breezy.  Nice day for running.  Started at South Shore Park, headed south just past the big rock up to the first set of condos and then turned around.

Not many people out on the path - a few walkers, runners and bikers.

Training run - weekly long run

Today's run was 6 miles, finished in 1:09:52.  I used the Jeff Galloway training method - run/walk using 3 min. run/1 min. walk.  I was at 3 miles in 35 minutes.  Took Elmo, aka Elms, along for the run - nice but I need to create a longer set!

I started out at South Shore Park mile marker 60.5, headed south on the Oak Leaf Trail to the pond in Sheridan Park, mile marker 57.5, and turned around.

Another sunny day, in the 50's when I started out and 62 when I finished.
