Distance Ran = 3.2 miles
Time of Run = 30.16 (9.43 per mile)
Route = good old 5k, backwards!
Today I ran alone, I was supposed to meet Mrs. HK and she didn't show up right away. I could see that her house lights were off so I started my run, apparently she saw me and came out as I left a cloud of dust (haha!). I basically ditched her, but she forgives me. Anyway, I really struggled this morning, I felt sluggish and really congested and phleghmy. I am still working through the tail end of a cold, but I kicked my butt into gear and made somewhat decent time. On a plus note, I got new running shoes (finally!) and I really love them! This morning was pretty crisp, it felt good but my ears and forehead were quite cold. I need to consider some sort of ear warmer or headband or something. I suppose a beanie would work too. Good to be back!

Distance Ran = 3 miles running, 1.5 miles walking
Time of Run = 30 minutes for run, 30 minutes for walk
Route = trail by house
Tuesday was a bust, we both woke up and met and then promptly decided that we weren't feeling it that day and so went home and went back to bed. Today was better, a bit slow, but at least we did something. It was still totally dark this morning at 6 and there was a lot of cloud cover so the light took a long time to filter through. It was a nice workout though and I am glad that I did it, I am still trying to get over this cold and I really didn't want to get up. Glad I did.

Distance Ran = 6 miles
Time of Run = 56 minutes (9.30 min miles)
Route = Home to the trail, 3 miles in and back again
I had a great run today. The weather was perfect, the sunrise was beautiful, my body felt great. I took a new route today and it included some hills. I am happy to report that I still made decent time despite the added difficulty to my running.

Distance Ran = 5k
Time of Run = 33.73 (10.55 per mile)
Route = 5k fun run
Weird weird day. I woke up twenty minutes late, completely ditching Mrs Hk ON HER BIRTHDAY! Anyway, I went out for a run anyway as I still had some time. It was weird, I think I might have some sort of cold, my breathing was really weird and I had so much phlegm. Most of all, I am SO grateful there was a portable bathroom on my route. The End.

Distance Ran = 3.8 miles
Time of Run = 38 minutes (10 minute miles)
Route = 5k route plus a neighborhood loop
Today I took Mrs. Hk on the 5k route. I didn't tell her where we were going until we needed to turn and I didn't tell her how far we had gone or were planning on going until the end. We kept a steady pace throughout the run, which is always nice. There was a bit of crispness to the morning when we first started out, and even as we were finishing it was still pleasant outside. It was a beautiful run!

Distance Ran = 5.7 miles
Time of Run = 59.86 minutes
Route = New route, combo of 5k plus church route, plus neighborhoods.
Today was great! I really loved running this morning, I haven't been on a really good run in a while and it just felt great. The weather was perfect, although I started running in the dark, I guess that is just a sign of the impending autumn weather. I found myself appreciating the sky, the sunrise, and the ability that I have to run. I really have a lot to be thankful for, and I am glad that I took the time this morning to run so that I could have that moment.

Distance Walked: 2.5 miles
Time of Walk: who knows...
Route: church plus a new loop minus last loop
Mrs. HK and I were planning on riding 10 miles today and then running 2 miles. Well, Mrs. HK's tires were flat, and we had a few other problems so we bagged our bikes and decided just to walk and talk. We needed to talk today, running will commence on Saturday.
