Very easy 10.5 at SH park before church. It felt nice this morning even though it wasn't much cooler. My legs are a little tight but much better than last week at this time. This run also gave me 70 miles for my week. This was my goal for mileage. Now I'm going to maintain and start adding back speed work. Avg. 8:05 |

I thought it had been longer but still a month since my last track workout. Met with the Black Sheep at East High. It was a fun natured workout with a retro theme. I tried my best to find something “retro” but Chad had me trumped with his short-shorts. The workout overall was some warm-up a mile and then six quarters. I felt I had a 5 min in me because of the 5K a few weeks back but I didn’t pace right and not ready for sustained speed. Chad was too nice to me in his blog entry. I had the first quarter and blew it. I was struggling finding pace. I left too much on my plate and overall wasn’t thrilled with my mile of 5:14, and not pacing correctly for Chad and Josh had me frustrated but they were cool about it. The quarters went a little better. I had fun with them and since I still had plenty in the tank after that mile, I really gave the last one a go, with plenty of help from Chad. It was nice ending with a 64, probably my fastest quarter in a few years. My calves are really punishing me now for it, but it was well worth it and it was great doing a workout and running with other people again. Speaking of other people, I saw Bill C with his “kids” at the zoo parking lot on the way in to work after the workout I yelled but I don’t think he saw me |

I felt surprisingly good this morning. My calves are much better. I did end up with a blister that gave me some minor problems but other than that, it was still cool when I ran this morning. My usual 3o/1i SH loops. Avg. 7:57 |

I actually ran in the evening today. 8:15pm start. The weather wasn't too bad. My legs always feel more "peppy" in the evening. Still no major wear-n-tear from the track workout. SH 3o/1i from home. Avg. 7:23 |
