Back from Vacation, Hopefully, Back on Track

i haven't gotten to do my long runs the last 2 weeks. 2 weeks ago i was off track and didn't get the long run in. this past week we were on vacation and driving all weekend and sight-seeing so i didn't get my long run in this past saturday. i think we did walk about 10 miles in d.c., or it felt like it. we were driving until late last night and didn't get to a hotel until late and they did not have a treadmill, so i could not get my run in. i did do my strength training last night that was scheduled for tonight so i could do my run tonight. so, that is what i did, 4 miles tonight. my legs felt a little sore, i think from all the lunges that i do in the strength training. that was expected though. here are my .5 mile spits and heart rates:

.5= 4.44 157
1.0= 9.40 4.56 173
1.5= 14.54 5.14 172
2.0= 20.26 5.32 173
2.5= 26.05 5.39 167
3.0= 31.41 5.35 168
3.5= 37.34 5.53 167
4.0= 43.14 5.39 172

thought of the day: i feel good on my new schedule, even though i am a little sore i feel better that i am working my entire body and stretching more. i know when i complete this schedule i will be in better overall condition, and most importantly, in better shape to climb those mountains! everyone work hard and get your runs in!
