Day 125

• 5 miles
• 8:27/mi pace
• 0605
• From/To home
• Felt like I was going faster than above pace and actually thought I did 5.1 or 5.2, but whatever, wasn't supposed to be fast or hard and wasn't.   Have to speed up tomorrow, but that's tomorrow.

Day 124

• 2.87 miles
• 8:29/mi pace
• 0710
• From/To home
• Felt pretty good considering yesterday's effort, could've kept going without difficulty, but glad I cut it to this length in an effort to recover.   Rolled I.T. band and have been doing so somewhat regularly, I think it helps more than just alleviate pain, I think it helps overall, perhaps even performance.

Day 123

• 12.32 miles
• 8:08/mi pace
• 0655
• From/To home
• Ran from home to T-bird Park, 3 loops and then returned home -- ran much harder than I anticipated, but really enjoyed it.   I woke up with sore throat symptoms, which worried me and still does, hopefully it will pass quickly or turn out to be nothing at all.   Considering the first 3 miles were slow, I ran very well thereafter...had earphones on and that may have helped, also took down 1 GU, which seems to always help as well.  Need to run more hills, definitely believe in the "speedwork in disguise" mantra associated with hill running. 

Day 122

• 1.7 miles
• 8:35/mi pace
• 1845
• From/To home
• Didn't get out of bed, so didn't do long run, could only wedge this in to continue streak.

Day 121

• 2.43 miles
• 8:30/mile
• 0550
• From/To Home
• Playing golf with Casey Jones at Blackstone CC this morning, so wanted to warm up, but not get tired...guess I accomplished that while extending The Streak.  Becca asked today how consumed I am by The Streak -- not sure, I don't think about it too much, but definitely every day...I'll have to evaluate that over the next fews weeks.  

Day 120

• 5 miles
• 8:14/mile pace
• 0735
• From/To home
• Becca took Case to school today so I could get this run in, which was very cool.   Started off briskly, but never moved beyond that....feel like perceived effort should result in faster time, but I guess it is probably faster than same perceived effort a few months ago -- wondering when I'll feel like really pushing it, if I don't within the next few months then breaking 3 hours will be in jeapardy, well, may be anyway, but hopefully not.  Nearing 4 months on The Streak.

Day 119

• 8.3 miles
• 7:43/mile pace
• 0550
• From/To Home
• Up tempo going out and ran pretty hard coming back in...still not fast at all, but pleased with the effort.   Long way to go.
