AM-16 miles at 7-8/min pace for the bulk of the run then 1min on/40sec off repeats at the end of the run. More for strengthening the legs than anything else. Also mentally adjusting to running hard at the end of longer runs or races. Quincy loop.
PM-6 mile easy twilight run. 6:40-7:30/mi. Mainly 6:40ish. At about mile 2 a four legged guy came trotting along side me without so much as even hearing his approach. Would have sworn it was a coyote, but after closer examination at a safer distance I could tell it was probably a mix of blue eyed Malemute or something. He seemed friendly enough, so I just calmly told him to scoot on home and then slowly walk jogged away. I count myself lucky that I wasn't eaten..
