Two runs today; mileage for this evening's run is estimated. This morning, I tried an easy run on very hilly terrain, to simulate the first 15 miles of my 50 miler. I tried to keep the heart rate below 140, so I walked a few uphills. I think this is what I will do in the 50; the hilly, most challenging part is at the beginning, so I will run VERY slowly, saving myself for the easier running later. Which will be harder running, actually! Evening run is at the track, some wu, drills, and tempo and marathon paced intervals. Sorry it has taken me so long to update since Vietnam! I have actually been back a week, but our last week in Vietnam was internet free, so I got out of the habit a bit! Challenging, adventurous running to be sure, and my mental strength grew in leaps and bounds from this trip. I would not have planned to take this trip while training for a 50 miler, but that's how it worked out, and it added a whole other dimension to my travels, certainly! Vietnam itself was a wonderful trip; I have wanted to go there for a long long time, and it did not disappoint!

| Last long ish run before Saturday's 50 miler! Slow and easy, with lots of big hills. Yoga right after. Eating before, during and after the run. Good practice. |
