The Landing, Renton. Ran with the Balanced Athlete. We ran along 405 hwy. Most of the group just did a short run and then turned around. The group that went the furthest was only 5 miles and then they turned around, Dean, one of the store operators, and another girl. I had to keep running by myself. That was rough! I ran all the way to Bellevue, to the Bravern-Neiman Marcus shopping center. I did 4 laps around the shopping center to increase my distance so it would be almost exactly 20 miles round trip. I ran the same route on the way back. I would say I felt more tired than usual starting out. I got a little runners high at about 10-13 + miles but when I hit 14 it started to bother me. On top of that it started to pour down rain on me. Not just a little down pour but a big one! Sucked but at the same time was invigorating! It definetly cooled me off. From about mile 15 on up I had to take short walk breaks. My legs were just aching/hurting behind the max. It wasn't a sharp pain luckily so I kept running. I took Perpetulum electrolyte mix in one water bottle, water in another, and extra water bottle, and some energy chomps by Gu. I think they did really help. Such a tough tough run but so glad I am done! I am now done with all my longer training, next longer run THE MARATHON!! (hopefully I'll be ready for it--it still scares me) To think I have to run an extra 6 miles on top of what i did today...wow....

Some miles were slower because I had to walk some) |

ARHS. Early a.m. Not much sleep so very tough to get going. Once I got running I did okay but excited to get home and go back to bed if I don't work. Foggy and kinda cold starting out. Wore jacket for the first mile and then took off. Legs felt good except a little stiff from Sunday. About 18+ laps. (8 one direction, 8 another direction, then 2+ the other way).
TT: 44:11 Avg: 8:50 min. Max: 7:50 min.
Splits: 8:59, 8:55, 8:48, 8:46, 8:41 (very happy with my pace and perfectly getting faster each mile!) |

| ARHS. Early a.m. Very foggy and kinda chilly this am but mainly due to the moisture in the air. Again, hard to get up this morning-still not getting to bed early enough to wake up at 5 ish. Decided to either do hills this a.m. or push myself on the track. Decided for a faster run on the track. I felt the difference and was terribly worn out! Saw guy walking his 2 dogs early this morning near elementary school. TT: 32:32 Avg: 8:08 min. Max: 6:45 min. Splits: 8:18, 8:18, 8:02, 7:53 (yeah!!!!) |

Roegner Park. No rain! It was just slightly cloudy and some sprinkles before I ran. Ran at about 9:15 a.m. No work today so was able to do my long run mid morning. Saw some disc golfers, walkers, and a sad situation. The sad situation was a black lab laying in the road and a lady holding and stroking his head. Then I saw a couple police cars over there. I think the dog got hit by a car; the owner looked so sad....Running wise: I had a pretty good run but was thinking the 8 miles would fly by so quick but not fast enough. Ran the regular out and back loop twice without the extra stretch past parking area. Then I tried something new and ran the last mile or less up the hill going up to lakeland hills. ouch! That was brutal but I did it slow without stopping. I got a little past mill pond loop and then turned around then when down a new path behind the tennis courts. No knee pain. well slight on my R knee front but not worriesome.
