| Early flight back to DC. Sad. So sad. I was thinking about running but didn't do it. Tidied up, unpacked, did laundry, etc.

6.13 miles after work, average 9:03, a very cool day in DC, feels like fall already! Let's hope it stays like this!
Now I have to catch up with all of your blogs, but I can't do it because I forgot my computer at my friend's house!!! Bummer... It feels kind of good not to have a computer though - but I rely on it for so much! 9 pm and I'm in the office typing this... gotta get home and eat! Happy Monday!

| Biked to the office - got new shoes at the running store during lunch. Did the modified Montelepsy loop, going up on the Glover Park trail then back on the c&o canal. I felt like I was pushing the pace pretty good and going fast, but it was a trail and gets steep and rocky so you can't go too too fast... Average 9:30, with the last 2.5 miles at 8:30 pace. To get a 3:40 marathon I need to average a bit better than 8:30 minute miles. With less than 2 months to go, it's pretty clear that's not going to happen. I have a 1/2 marathon September 13, it's a bit hilly and on a bike path so not a great indication, but if I don't do 1:45 or better I'm going to forget about getting a BQ at Marine Corps and just run it to see how I do. Maybe after training for 3-4 months I can try the National Marathon here in February or March. | |

Cooled down - now biking back home.
Did I mention I passed my Microeconometrics class, which puts me exactly half way through my master's program? Very happy about that. Happy running everyone! | |

| From home to the office, nice and slow. 65 degrees or something. The past 3-4 days have been amazingly cool, soooo nice! Let's hope it stays that way. Going camping this weekend so no access to the blog... I'll be eagerly awaiting to see how y'all did on your races this weekend, good luck!

| Work, drove to beach, took too long, got there too late, pitched my tent and went to sleep. No running - beautiful weather | |
