Today was slow and somewhat painful. It felt slow, at least. My inability to get more than 9mpm or so initially is offset by the progressive negative splits through the entire run. That is actually encouraging.

Looking back about a year, I'm running a little slower than I did last year. On the other hand, I wan't doing any speedwork last year, so I think there will be some return on investment in about two or three weeks if everything continues to pan out.

I'm also making a conscious effort to eat less to eliminate some of the lard that hangs off my spare tire.
