Age is just a number.

Easy 6 miler this morning on the Rio loop.  6:30ish-40ish pace for most of the run.  Very relaxing, I love this time of the morning because it sets a good tone for the day. 

Easy 10 miles with 6 miles in 1:00:32. 6:03/mile average with a quick warmup. Legs felt ok good. Quarry bend and 7th east route up past the Credit Union.  Last 5 miles at 5:44, 5:41, 5:20, On the flat; 5:46, and 5:38.  Pretty solid run in spite of the heat again. 86-90 F.  Slight headwind at the end.

AM-Easy wake up run with 6 miles at 6:45-7/min pace.  7th out and back. Much cooler even at 11 AM it was only 73 F!  I'll take that any day vs 90 plus.  

PM- Went for a walk..

AM-Easy 4 miles before work. 7:30-8/min pace.  Very cool this morning. Nice..

PM-Easy 8 miles with 6 at 6:30-6:50/mile.  Quarry bend  and library out and back. 86-90 F.

Easy 6 miles at 6:40-7:30 pace.  41:48/total time.  7th and 13th east loop.  

I'd blog and run more this evening but I have found a new project for my other hobby!  I restore antique radios and yesterday I ran across an old 1936 RCA tombstone radio.  Got the power supply functioning today with a new line cord and tubes seem to be ok so far.   Now Im waiting for parts to recap the rest of the circuitry.  The cabinet is in remarkable shape for it's age with only some lemon oil needed to bring out the veneer.  I know.. kind of a strange dork hobby, but it's mine and I love doing it whenever the opportunity comes around.    This will definitely help me cope with taper madness..

AM-5 miles in 32:35 with 16:50/15:45 for 2.5 each.  One half mile at 5:34/mi pace at the end.   Legs felt ok and were full with glycogen as the warmup was rather quick.  I felt like I was on autopilot and became aerobic in less than a mile it seemed.  This is a good sign I think as it tells me I'll be ready to rock in a week hopefully.  Just gotta hold back now.

PM-12 mile progressive on 7th with 2 at 5:50-6:10 and the last 4 in 22:46 at 5:33-5:46/mile.  80-82 F with slight headwind for the last 6 miles.  Tired from the all nighter at work last night but managed to get it done after a short rest this morning.   May jog later this evening or not depending on how tired I am.  Out..

PM-Felt better after some sleep and moving around doing some laundry.  Went out into the cool breeze and put in a total of 6 miles.  First 3 in 22:53 with the last 3 in 18:50.  41:53 total time.  Parkway trail.  73 F.
