This was a lot slower than yesterday.  I just relaxed and went with it.  The wind felt more intense than yesterday, even though it wasn't, really.  The difference is that this was directly from the west, so I spent more time running directly into it.

Avg. 9:31 pace

2 8 milers in a row? Wow! You are awesome!

Your Illinois wind puts the wimpy Colorado wind to shame.

It's good to follow a fast day with a slower day.

It's been a few weeks since I've been able to have two consecutive days running outside. Usually a fast day follows with a day on the Gazelle, where I don't think about pace since I'm just on it for time. And Carolyn, I think I'd rather my wind than all your hills! At least my wind goes away for a few months in the summer!

Wind can really suck the energy out of you. Glad you just relaxed and had a good run.
