Creeping up with a little speed

My mileage is creeping back up... very slowly! I'm actually concerned that I'm under training right now.

At any rate, we had awesome weather last night for the first time this year, and put it to good use. 6x 800 with 90 seconds recovery @ 2:39, 2:38, 2:36, 2:34, 2:34, 2:31, 2:32... averaging 77.5's.

Not bad for the first interval workout in 4 months. I actually felt pretty fresh at the end of it too.

I'm finally bouncing around in the 60's with some mis-matched 7 day periods... I still don't feel "in shape" yet, and running faster still seems to require effort (with the exception of last night). Shins/calves feel good though. I'm constantly like 1 week away from feeling "more normal".

Crunch time is coming. I need more tempo, speed, and quality.

Heading off to San Antonio for a long weekend with Sarah. I should be able to get some nice warm weather, plus hill runs in down there.
