Fitness Note - I am happy with today's workout. Another day of the program accomplished! I was quite sluggish today especially in the first part of the run this morning. My 2.5 mile time was not good -avg. 5.8 mph - but at least I pushed through the day and finished with a strong .5 mile - avg 7.2mph time and a great leg and back workout. Tomorrow is another day! Did I do my best? Yes. Could I have gone faster? Yes. Will I do better next time? Absolutely!!!
