Notes

After four shitty days, I finally felt good tonight. Felt good right from the get-go and knew it was going to be one of those runs. Even though I was wearing Rachel's short shorts and a Clinton-Gore 1996 shirt. Ran the first 2.15 loop in 14:40.11 (6:49.4 pace), then thought this isn't good. I knew that I would have to go faster and I had originally thought about running the loop three times. I overcame a cramp that last for three minutes or so and ran the loop again in 14:14.52 (6:37.5 pace). All together, 4.3 miles in 28:54.63 (6:43.4 pace). I didn't want to count it has tempo, but I guess I kind of had to. I usually like counting it when I plan on doing it. Problem is I started running and knew I felt good today. Too bad my easy runs my senior year were probably 6:40-6:45 pace. After the two loops, I ran a slow 6:48.37 for 0.84 miles at 8:06.2 pace. Will try to hit 42 next week.

Songs in my head : Drunken Lullabies (Flogging Molly), Intergalactic (Beastie Boys), Shoot First (moe.)
