What a Tuesday this has started out being. I woke up after a solid 7+ hour sleep, via alarm clock, to get out and get my Tuesday run in. I upped my time today from a 10 -15 minute run/walk to a 15- 20 minute run/walk. Actually it turned into a 26 min run/walk. Running for 2 minutes/ walking for 1 minute for 13 cycles this morning took me 2.4 miles. Warm up and cool down added an extra .3 miles and a few extra minutes. I felt great this morning. The first mile felt really slow but once I hit mile 2 I felt awesome. My stride lengthened and I know I was moving faster than the first mile. Maybe it was because I knew it was the home stretch, I'm not sure, but it felt great. Hopefully this keeps up through the week.
I have a eye dr appointment and a meeting at S11's school today and plan on walking to both of them. That will add a few more minutes of movement today.
here is the route I ran today:

0900hrs: accompanied Kori to the gym to get a nice hot tub soak and steam in. Ended up run/walking another 30 minutes on the turf field and riding the recumbent bike for another 10. So add another 2.5 to 3 miles to the run/walk schedule, again my breathing was great throughout the whole session and I paced myself differently throughout the run. I then did get a soak in and hit up the steam room.. they felt great.
