Over a week down and still zombie-shuffling along

So, I'm sitting here in class, nominally learning how to make tables in HTML documents, and planning out my next run.
It's only been a week and already I'm planning runs in my head; not where I want to go, but how I want to do.

Sunday's long run felt surprisingly good. I say 'long' with a smile, it was only 45 minutes. But I felt great, I did my four intervals with little problem, even up and down the hill. Yes, the hill, not the large one form last Friday, but a hill worthy of back home nonetheless.

Monday was different story. Perhaps I was still recovering from Sunday, perhaps it was just warmer than I'm used to, but I was breathing far too heavily after the first five minutes.
Normally I'd stick to it and it would leave part-way through my next interval; this time it didn't. Eventually I had to cut the run short.

But, it is what it is and tomorrow I hopefully go up the huge hill again and feel better than last Friday.

For those who read this, I got comments! I love getting comments and reading them. I also lie replying to them. As of yet, however, I haven't discovered a way to respond directly to comments through blogger. I'd rather respond to a comment in thread format, as simply adding a new comment won't show up as a response for those who don't read the said comments constantly.

If there is a method, and someone knows, let me know?

Oh, and expect some pictures soon. Not of me, but this is first and foremost homework after all, and three pictures are required.

I demand pics of you! :P Preferably in some skimpy outfit :PP

Have you ever thought of doing suicide sprints? It might help with your recovery rate.

A skimpy outfit would make this a hypothermic experience; I believe the run is slated for the middle of the winter...

PS: Don't forget about those running pants at MEC, they won't be 50% off forever!
