9 miles on tm in 1:02:07. Starting at mile 2.5 I would change the incline from 1.0% to 1.5% and keep it there for half a mile, then go at 1.0% incline for half a mile. I did that until about mile 8.

Avg pace of 6:54.

10 miles on tm with 1.0% incline. I started out a little quicker than normal because I wanted to start doing a speed workout about 30 minutes in. After 30 minutes I increased the speed to 9.3 mph (6:27) and held it for 6 minutes, then went to 10.7 mph (5:36) for 1 minute. I did 5 times with no recovery or breaks in between. I felt really good during and after. I was tired while doing it, but I felt like I could have kept of doing it.

This is the fastest I have done a 10 mile training run. I also beat my only 15k time during this run. I hope I am actually improving, and not just wearing myself out. I feel good and not like I am pushing it too hard too soon.

Avg pace 6:37

11 miles on tm at 1.0% incline in bout 1:20:00. I am tired. Not getting enough sleep, and running is adding up. My body was telling me to take it easy today, so I listened. Sometimes its easier to run at a faster pace than to run at a slower pace.

Hopefully I can catch up on some sleep in a while, but it certainly won't be tonight.

8 miles on tm at 1.0% incline. When I first started out I got some sharp shooting pains in my right ankle. They would be off and on about every 30 seconds. At one point I almost put my arms on the handles to take the weight off of my foot. It didn't feel like anything serious, so I pushed through. After about 10 minutes they went away.

I could feel that my form was not so good at the beginning of my run, but it felt like it got better towards the end.I feel like my right leg might be a little longer than my left leg, and it makes me run a little sideways. Maybe I could try an insert to try and even it out.

13 miles on tm at 1.0% incline in 1:27:39. I started out at 8.3 mph and increased the speed by 0.1 mph every mile.

I took a gu around mile 6 and a few ounces of watered down gatorade at 6.5. I then had a few more ounces of gatorade at mile 10. I probably didn't need the gu, but anytime I get a chance to have a peanut butter gu, I take it!

I felt good during this run. No pain in my right ankle, and my form felt way better than it did yesterday.
