Ran 30 minutes after a 10 minute warm up.   Just started walking near the end because of a loss of motivation and tiredness.  Averaged a 12:12.25 over a four mile course.

Pushups to exhaustion followed by a half mile jog, and then situps followed by a half mile buddy carry or piggy back, then air squats followed by a half mile with kit and some up downs and then finishing that off with another half mile jog.

Short run.  Timed at 33:50.  Ran about 16 minutes out and 16 minutes back.  Felt my abs burning for the first time in a while because of trying to keep up with someone else.

Went up the street to BTEC and back in 36:19.  Running with a faster runner sucks.  I was happy for the support though and can see how running groups work now.  He encouraged me the whole way and tried to help me with my breathing.  At the end, I don't even think he broke a sweat while I needed a few minutes to cool down.  He didn't have to run with me but he did and I am grateful.

Averaged for the most part a 5:43 every half mile along the trail with total time being 46:15.66.  The roughest parts being the initial warm up and the second to last half mile.  It was good to just get out and run but I know I need to keep pushing now after Monday's run.

A 10 minute jog followed by 10 minutes at 170 bpm.  170 is a little fast.  I can't quite keep the tempo.  For the most part I stayed with it but it requires me to shorten my stride which I don't like.  Finished off with 6 reps of 1 minute sprint with 1 minute recover and 4 reps at 30 sec sprint with 1 min recovery.

Jog for 36:22 which probably puts me at 2.5 to 3 miles.  Somewhere around there.

Just over three laps for two miles.  Average about 6 minutes a lap.  First two laps in 11:56.69 with a collapse on the final lap at 6:28.54 for total of 18:25.23.  Definitely not the best time.

39:40.79.  Not feeling it today.  Regardless, still happy to get outside and get something under my belt to start the week off.  A nice slow pace at a 13 minute mile.

33:19.23  Improvement over Monday's time but not really an improvement overall.  That works out to about 11:07 per mile.
