Runner’s diary, Friday

So, who ordered this weather? It already was in the 80s and as humid as a steam room when it was time to run this morning, so I stayed inside on the treadmill and worked on pushing the pace. I ran three miles in 24:33 — the fastest I’ve run in a while. I find it easier to push on the treadmill because it moves and if you don’t keep up you fall off. In any case, that makes 20 for the week after a couple of light weeks. I finished up with some leg work — balance stuff, squats, etc.
