Comments: I had a decent week of running, and a couple of my runs were in the 7 minute range. Slowly, I’m starting to get my paces back to normal. I had a good run on Sunday. At first, I was feeling a bit blah on the run and didn’t feel like working, but after a couple miles I started to feel better and didn’t let myself slack and throw in the towel. The best part of my paces getting a bit faster is how quickly my runs are over with. An 8 minute per mile run seems to go by so much faster than a 9:30 minute per mile run, even if it ends up only being a few minutes.
