5 (interval) miles this morning

I didn't know it was going to storm so heavy this morning but I did think the weather would be hot and humid so I decided last night that I would go to the gym for my 5 miles this morning. Of course, bc of the humidity and storms, I slept poorly and was lagging this morning. By the time I did make it to the gym, I realized I had forgotten my i-pod. I don't like to think I'm addicted to it, but for longer, less-enthusiastic runs, it's a real bonus. That forgetfulness broke my athletic determination. I decided instead that I would run one mile five times and alternate with upper body weights in between the miles. I also thought I'd try to up the pace in the hopes that a quicker run would keep me less bored. By the last mile, I was up to running 6.2 and that was incredibly tough. Okay, a 6.2 pace is barely under a ten-minute mile. I can't even imagine running a 6 minute mile. I was sweating like a bogged down water buffalo!! I did feel pretty good and it was great to do some weights again as well.
