6:00 am. I must be on California time, very late start. But that's OK cause I don't have an office to go too :). Today just goes to show you can do anything a little piece of paper tells you to do. Workout called for 7 miles with 3 x 1600's. 1600's at 5:30 pace. I thought there was no way I could do it since I've only done 1 5:30 min/mile before and that was going downhill at the Provo River 1/2. Ran 3 miles at a 7:00 pace to warm up then set the treadmill to 11mph which was actually 5:27 but who's counting. Made it through the first one did a 1/2 mile jog and then did the first 1/2 of my 2nd set at 5:27 pace and the second 1/2 at 5:21 pace 5:24 avg. 1/2 mile jog and then my final stride at 5:18 avg. Totally amazed myself. Came home from the gym and Britt wanted me to run with her pushing the stroller with Zach for another easy 6 miles at 9:30 pace.
