| It was a beautiful cool day for a long run. We did loops around Mary's with our nutrition station on her porch. Craig was off so he stayed home with the kids. Great run. |

| This was our "better than nothing" run at the track. It was supposed to be a 45 min. paced run. Only made it about 3 miles before Hope was tormenting Kate too much. |

| Ran on TM at gym today. Bored after doing two 8 min. miles so decided to speed it up to get my 5 miles in. Thought I'd shoot for a sub 20 5K. I got 19:14, much easier to make yourself get a PR on a TM if you set your pace and mentally tie your hands behind your back. It felt good. |

| We did 8X800's at the track this evening. It was a family event. Craig and Mark and all the kids were there. I asked Mary if there was a track near a playground that we could go to and she said, "we'll just take the playground to the track!" So, she brought her playhouses with all the tunnels. We had snacks and Hayden's swing (which he didn't use because he was sleeping the whole time). We took turns doing the 800's. I felt good today. Poor Craig ran some in between watching kids, he sprained both ankles last night moving boxes from our garage to our basement. He's forging on prepping for the marathon despite all his obstacles. Love that guy. Splits, 3:11, 3:06, 3:03, 3:08, 3:05, 3:05, 3:?, 2:50. |

| Avg. pace 9:13. We went early this morning. Nice to do a morning run. Did a sidewalk loop from my house. It's still pretty muggy in these parts. Fall will be nice:) Bring on the long sleeves. |

We did our long run this morning. It took some tricky coordinating. Craig was on call and Mary's husband was out of town. I hired a babysitter to sleep over last night and Mary brought Kate over this morning. We divided the run up into 4 legs. Leg #1: 6 miles from my house to Mary's. It took nearly the whole 6 to get warmed up! I was feeling pretty good by the time we got there though. Took some chomps and some beans--a tasty energy boost! Leg #2: 4 mile neighborhood loop. I was energized and felt strong. It seemed like a lot of uphill. Was that my imagination? Leg #3: another 4 mile loop from Mary's house. "Franklin loop." Went by pretty quickly. We stopped one last time at our nutrition station for the final 6 back to my house. Leg #4: 6 back to my house. The sun warmed things up quite a bit by this time. It was pretty muggy too. At the corner right by my house there was a fatal crash this morning. As Mary drove to my house, they wouldn't let her through--she had to do a big loop to get to my house another way. On this last leg, we saw a mangled car that had crashed with a diesel. So crazy that it was so close to my house... Scary. All in all, a good run. Glad it's done! Pace: 9:37. Walked 10+ seconds at each mile

| Did 5 on the treadmill at the gym. Watched "the life of Lisa Marie Presley." Had to gradually up the pace to get done before kids club closed. |

| 4X1 mile repeats. We ran at the elementary school, we plotted a .33 mile loop and did it 3 times. This was much easier mentally than doing 4 on the track. Splits: 6:36, 6:35,6:31, 6:19 Kids had fun on the playgrounds. |

| Ran around the park loop with Craig and the stroller while Addy had soccer practice. I really like running there. |

| This was another "better than nothing" run. It was supposed to be 21 miles, but I forgot I had missionary splits at 7:30 and we started our run at 5. Looped around Mary's. Pretty scenery down there--Echo rd, Wing Lake, Kirk of the Hills. I'm starting to get a little fond of this place. It really is beautiful, especially this time of year. As we ran by the cider mill, we decided that when it opens next week, we will stop there for donuts and cider instead of taking gu. Yummy! |

| Mary and I did a 50 min. paced run at 5AM. My watch died 1/2 way through, so we tried to beat the 25 min. it took to get out on our out-and-back course. We did it by 1 minute, plus it was uphill on the way home! I think we did just about an 8 min. pace, maybe slightly faster. |

| "800's." If you can call them that. Tried doing them pushing the kids around my neighborhood. 1st one was 4:23. Hmmm. Ran to the park and let them play while I did 3 more. 3:31, 3:31, 3:29. Rough terrain, but exactly .25 miles around the field. Addy made up obstacle courses for me to do in between the repeats. Quite challenging. Really! Mom called after being on a trip abroad for a week, so walked it home while we caught up. The run was another "better than nothing" workout:) |
