Where do I start, its awful but I really have nothing much to say. I am doing the best I can with the time I have. My runs are shorter and quicker, I've been averaging 9-9:45 pace the last two weeks which is something I have not done in ages and when I say ages in like about 2 years. For the past 2 years my training runs have averaged about 10:30 to 11:30 and this was killing me mentally it seemed I would never get out of the rut. Finally it looks like things are looking up.

I didn't get any long runs in this weekend. Saturday I got side tracked . Sunday finally, I got to run this race, the Beachfront Buschwhack a very challenging XC 5 miler so that got the blood flowing. "where did those damn stairs come from?" I've run this race before at least 4 times and for the life of me I can't remember the stairs. Mark my words, I'll remember them next year.

Wasn't too sure I was running Philly this year, then I got the final word that I could and wouldn't you know the race is full!!! I have only myself to blame for this one.

Monday I did 5 miles

Tuesday I did 6 miles

Have a great running week!! and may all your miles be merry

Excellent picking up of the pace!! I'm jealous.

It seems I remember a previous post where you had forgotten the course and thought it was harder. Maybe it is like labor, some of the pain lessons over time and you start to forget. :D Only thing is, you keep going back and running it again.
