Easy run + level 1 Shred. 5:55 am, 65° F, 74% humidity, winds calm, overcast. I woke up at 5:20 this morning and wondered why my alarm hadn't gone off at 5:15. It turned out that it was because my alarm was set for 6:30 (because I slept in yesterday), so I reset it for 5:30 and went back to sleep, then hit the snooze alarm at 5:30 and got up at about 5:40. Still, I managed to make it out the door in time to take the 2-mile route and be at Lindsay's house at 6:15. I ran 3 1/2 miles with Lindsay, and then the rest by myself. I was lazy and didn't run yesterday. Thursdays are my most frequently skipped day lately. I think it's because my plan is to run longer on Thursdays and that intimidates me, and so I don't run at all. Maybe I need to give myself permission to do shorter runs on Thursdays so that I don't scare myself. I ran slowly this morning. Part of the reason was that I run slower when I'm with Lindsay, but I was pretty slow when I was by myself too. I think I'm slowing down because I've been eating very poorly and I've gained some weight.
AP: 9:50. Splits: 9:57, 9;32, 9:44, 10:01, 10:01, 9:59, 0.6 @ 9:28.
