There were a lot of ups and downs today surrounding this run.

The first of which was, I  didn’t get great sleep and woke up feeling lethargic. Thus I made excuses for the better part of the day to not do anything.

I got to the point where I decided I would put it off for tomorrow but the catch is I’ll be traveling all day tomorrow and wouldn’t have time. Knowing this, my wife held me accountable and wanted to go for a walk at the local trail knowing I would run.

Sometimes you just need someone else by your side! The run itself ended up being great. I ran 8:36 per mile for 8 miles when I was hoping for a 9 min pace. The pace felt easy and I even found myself trying to slow down throughout.

My base is really starting to take shape now; as I am seeing the gains of consistently getting my workouts in over the last 3 months.
