9.5 mile run home from the store tonight. Pretty tired, I think it had to do with my lack of food today.

It's so nice out in the mornings right now. Easy 7.5 to the store.

Decided not to run my evening run - it was kinda weird my heart actually felt fatigued so I came home and slept for a little while (I never take naps). I'm not sure if it's from stress or just fatigue - possibly both. I have felt like this before however while increasing my conditioning.

Another great run with the the guys Dave, Bill and my imaginary pacer Frank. Met at the store and went up the SG Marathon course to Brookside. Took the first 10 easy then picked it up the second half. Dropped it down to a 6 min average for the last ten. I can tell my strength and speed are really starting to come back. I need to work on leg turn over however. It will come with time. Dave was rockin it considering he just got done being sick with pneumonia. I'm excited to see how he will perform at the SL Marathon.

I don't know what was going on with my heart last night but I felt great after getting warmed-up this morning.
