4 sprints!

Ran well today.  Four sprints, less pull-ups, and a couple groups of push-ups.  I’ve having great fun running these days.  It seems like it rains all the time here, so when it’s not raining, I take advantage of that little respite and get out there.  I’ve been wearing one long-sleeve t-shirt

22? Really? Wow!

I’ve written a few times about the impact psychological effects can have on running.   If I’ve been working all day, or if it’s hot—or I THINK I’ve been working all day, or I if I THINK it’s hot—I might run slower.   Little stresses become big.  In the same way, if I’m feeling good,
