Easy run + 4 x 8-sec. hill sprints.

6:54 am, 38-48° F, 60% humidity, winds calm.

I had a hard time getting to sleep last night because I took a really big long nap yesterday afternoon. As a result, I had a hard time dragging myself out of bed and getting myself out the door this morning. Now I'm going to be late to work.

I ran a little faster than usual today and it felt pretty good. Of course, it was a fairly short run, so no big deal.

AP: 9:40. Splits: 10:05, 9:45, 9:32, 9:09, 9:19. Pace on hill sprints: 7:25, 6:54, 6:51, 6:12.

Sexy hill sprints, especially the last one. Now quit checking your email. You're supposed to be working.

I'm booting up my work computer so that I can check my work email and see if there's anything urgent I need to attend to.

No big deal? It's always good to run fast and feel great!

Sunday naps are so great on Sunday, but always seem to make waking up on Monday a real pain in the rear!

Nice jump start this week. I'm still in the middle of my nap that started yesterday.

Love the hill sprints! That Sunday nap is a love/hate thing for me as well - 1:00 church just knocks that right out so maybe we'll try again next year.

Hi Carolyn! Nice hill sprints, as per usual. I've been sick, still sick, probably for awhile, so I'll live vicariously off of your hill sprints. Make them exciting!
