Tonight I will jog for 5-6 miles easy.
Starting to feel good

But well done you--that is amazing. Next step sounds like a Half Marathon--lol

Tonight I have been out and run another 7 miles with about 5 miles of that consisting of short reps again. Should set me up for another good run tomorrow night with the club.
A club member mentioned that I looked like I had lost weight
. He said my cheek bones were sticking out more.

Good work Ruthio, I feel guilty not getting out today after reading both of your reports. I'll try and make up for it in the morning, but I had a killer of a run on Tuesday and didn't feel too good for the rest of the day. It should be an eight miler in the morning but if I feel crap I'll keep it to six.
