9.7 miles easy-moderate with some good hills

2 mile warm up, 1 mile race up Giants Despair, mile limp back down, and 3 mile cool down for 7 miles total.

I got blown out of the water by a last minute entry, he ran 7:02 and I ran 8:03 for 1st and 2nd place. I walked(quickly!) maybe 1/4 mile of it. I ran as hard as I could, that is a helluva hill!

8.4 miles very easy. Legs and body were tired.

5.5 miles and some strides.

Tomorrow I signed up for a 1 mile uphill(600+ feet elevation gain) just to support a buddy's event. I didn't have any intent to race it, that's just painful, but my coach told me to get at it so get at it I will. The course is up Giants Despair Hill climb in Wilkes Barre, PA. On the bright side there is a $100 gift card to the local running store if I can hack it.

Keeping it real. 11 miles with 3X 2-mile tempo reps.

Really nice day with temperature in the low 70s, blue skies, and puffy white clouds. I did 6 miles at tempo pace.

Got out the door before 6 AM and did 10 miles with 2 sets of 8 20 second pick ups w/ 40 seconds between each mixed in.
 First set was at 5K effort and the 2nd set was at mile effort. My watch was acting funky most of the run, the pace it was giving me was way off. Luckily I've gotten better at judging the pace without it.

Did another double. 8 miles in the morning and 4 miles at lunch.

Got caught in some thunderstorms mid run. Sought shelter under a school vestibule for about 15 minutes, when the rains subsided got 1K more, then another wave came through and this time I shelter at a Rec Centre for 20 minutes. Eventually got 10K in. 

3 miles today doing Fartleks.
