Saturday 5/26 - Cardio

• Ran 6 miles in 55:10 (10:00, 8:45, 9:11, 9:20, 9:32, 8:20), 9:11/mile pace, c/d 15:32.  Total = 70:41.  

 Decent run.  Was originally planning on doing normal 4-mile loop.  After slow uphill 1st mile, got a little ambitious with the 2nd mile while at the same time deciding to run a little longer.  Need to run more than 4 miles at least once a week, especially with 4 mile race coming up.  So, I decided I might as well do it this morning instead of putting it off to tomorrow.  Legs felt OK, but hills really hard.  Gotta believe low carbs has something to do with this, and the fact that I haven't been running as much as I want to be.  Overall pleased with the effort.  It was warm and really humid.  I was soaked when I got home.

Kept busy running errands in the afternoon...read procrastinating from finishing unpacking.  Went to Walmart for chaise lounge cushion, drove to Gilberts Corner for BBQ (they were sold out), stopped at a farmers market on rt. 15 for some fresh veggies, went to Wegmans (no samples were out - so disappointed) for more veggies and went to Pei Wei to get some of their good brown rice.  Only $.50/side order.  Oh, I also went to the pool and read for about 2 hours and got some sun.  Gotta get busy around the house tomorrow!

NOTE:  While reading UD 2.0 at the pool, Lyle commented on Hypertrophy Specific Training (HST) and referenced this website.  Some good articles about HST there.
