i ran another 5 miles on a treadmill tonight. i started out on one treadmill and was trying to configure it so i could do a tempo run, couldn't figure it out so i moved to another. that one was much better. i ran the first mile at a 10min pace, the next 2 at a 9:13min pace, the next .6 miles at a 9:13min pace, the next .9 miles at a 10:54min pace and the last 1/2 mile at a 10min pace. total time was 48:29 for a 9:42 min/mile pace. while running the 9:13 min/mile pace i did get really hot, i wanted to finish the 4th mile at the 9:13 min/mile pace but just couldn't do it. other than that i felt good for the entire run.

thought of the day: "We cannot do everything at once but we can do something at once" Calvin Coolidge. sometimes i have to remember this, especially when i start looking at my training schedule. i just want to do everything all at once. then, the further i get into my training, the less and less it seems i end up doing. i have to remember my motto, not only for runs, but also for training in general, slow and steady to finish the race.
