Personal: Pepper is my dog, thus my namesake. Used to run quite fast in the USMC (15:30 3 miles was my best) but stopped running when I got out. Now, it's much tougher and I generally cycle more than I run. However, I still compete in races because it's run and I can be a wee bit competitive.

| Nice easy run to start working back into the higher levels. Temps were in the high 30's/sunny at the start and progressed into the high 40's/sunny at the end of the run. Started out at a fast pace of about 6:30/mile, ended up slowing down as the run progressed in the middle, then speeding up at the last few miles. This was probably because Arlington County decided to turn off the water at the fountains, without consulting with me, so I didn't have water until the last 1.5 miles. Ended up finishing the run in 1:23.57, which is a decent start. | | Comments(4) |

It is a really warm day in the high 60's and sunny so I decided to go for a run, although I told myself that I wouldn't actually do one today. I got new shoes yesterday, Brooks Infiniti's, so they needed to get broken in. My right foot arch began to hurt towards the end of the run so I will monitor that, although it's probably my new shoes. 3 miles in 24:48 after running 1.5 miles in 12:48 with Pepper. Figured out that he still doesn't like running near sewer drains as he promptly plops his butt down and completely stops running. Oh well, the dog is a big babie. Nice easy run overall.

Ran 1 mile before pulling up lame on my right calf muscle. Stretched it out, and ultimately put 3 miles on the bike before it was too sore. Decided to call it quits so I didn't hurt it any more than I already did. We shall see how it works in the next few days....to be continued.

Did a nice 5 miles in 40:28. Run was actually really easy and the weather was nice and in the high 40s. Afterwards, took a nice 1.5 mile cooldown walk with Pepper in about 27 minutes. Overall, the calf felt much better after a nice day off and the shoes are breaking in nicely.
