Ran to the CV mountain with Jake and ran up a really steep path, we were going sub 6 on the way there and then we went back to the school. I was still asthma problems during the run and decided to take the last 4 miles off. I might put off increasing mileage for a little, lungs are still recovering and motivation isn't super high. I've been thinking about the extra time I would have to do a research project or something like that if I didn't run so much but I think its just because its been a cold long winter and my running has been in a little bit of a rut since I got sick. I just need to work throught this phase and try to hit some PRs to motivate me this spring.

I like your attitude Blake. It will come together if you just keep plugging away.

Thanks, I think I need to let my body reset through some easy runs. We should run together over spring break if you're staying in town.
