Did a new loop added onto the regular causeway beach route so we could get a little longer run. It was nice but definitely can't say I'll be doing it by myself when it's dark. Ran nice tonight and got some decent times. Worked a little faster pace up the causeway and finished w/ an easy final mile at 8;45/m.

Did the usual, nice pace out- my reugular "easy pace" is getting a little faster than it used to be. (yay), My last mile up over causeway and to the finish I did in 7:40/m happy w/ that.

My hubby walked the causeway tonight and is starting to get out w/ us more frequently. Very glad to see him come along. He's working on dropping some weight and getting fit. Doubt he'll be able to really run due to a back injury he had from an accident years ago. All I care about is he gets a workout and feels healthy. :)  

Have the Melbourne 1/2 on Sunday. Good weather is forecasted, hopefully will give me a chance to do some good running.

Ran the local 1/2 Marathon today. We had very decent weather. Start temp in hi 40's finish temp about 51. A bit windtybut not horrible. Little bit of tightness in my left thigh mid-way so didn't push until it loosened up/ Did finish strong. Have a blister on right foot, wh/ is weird I haven't had that issue at all in these shoes. Looking to get my speed going for dure now. I'm feeling mentally more confident in my runs now that I've done 2 1/2"s in the last few months under 2:10. Woo hoo, time start some more serious speed work. Lovely day!
