AM- 6 miles easy at 7:30 and 3 miles at 6:50-7/min pace. I may keep the volume at 70 mpw for a while with 2 hard workouts per week. Seems about right.

AM2-Went home grabbed some fluids and decided to go do my hard workout before the heat set in this afternoon. Glad I did that because wow I really felt strong this morning for some strange reason. Was it a cooler temp? Earlier start? Possibly combine those along with recovery now from the marathon and I think that just may be the answer.

Anyway, I went 6 miles total with some faster fartlek segments of 3 min on with 1min off working on form and turnover. Stretch afterwards. Saw Maurine on the road and waved hi but didn't have time to chat as I was doing my repeats. Kinda selfish of me I know..

PM-8 miles easy at 8/min pace trying to keep the heart rate low. Felt ok but a little toasty out there this evening.. 7th and 13th east. So much for 70 mpw:)

Aw - don't feel bad. I would have just whined at you anyway because I was miserable from skin tearing off my eye during the night.

Glad you had a good run.

Nice work Steve. Are you focusing on shorter races?

I might have a real old radio my grandparents have that I can give you if your interested? I would have to look to know what the model is. I don't know off the top of my head right now. I don't have it in front of me. But I will let you know.

Maurine-Dang that sounds gruesome, about as bad as Robs knee! Definitely take care of that.

Kory-Ok, that sounds really cool. Is it a table top or larger model? I see your still struggling with the piriformis issue, man that really sucks:(

Have you gave some thought about the bike?

Note to self, Kory gets put in my prayer with the man upstairs on the top floor. Yes, and Maurine too:)
