2 mile warm up 5 mile tempo at 7:20 pace 2 mile cool down

I felt really good today and the tempo run went pretty effortlessly. A week and a half to my 20 miler. Goal is to run 7:15's as long as I can.  If it works out time should be 2:15.

Double sessions today.  7.3 in the a.m. in an 1:01  followed by 6.8 afternoon run with the boys in 1:07.  Felt good for both runs.

Angry run as a personal issue fired me up.  Tweaked my ankle.  Hopefully it'll be O.K. for tommorrow.

Ankle was bugging me a little before the run but worse afterwards.  So much for being smart.  Other than that the run felt good.  Lots of icing this week.  We'll see how it responds before committing to Saturdays race.
