have the escarpment trail race 30k next sunday and i just remembered i've done wait....0 long runs. i know it's too late and probably bad to even do any sort of long run but i needed to see if there is even any point still going. Wanted to wake up at 4:15am, unfortunately woke up at 12:56 am with my left eye killing me...some contact issue. got back to bed finally didn't end up running until 5:30. ran 2hrs 9 min. saw a dead snake and some bobcat thingy and its cub. it may have been a fox but had a short stubby tail and had whiskers. it seemed relatively small  though. i've had bear poop twice on my porch already.

4.32 mile am run on trails behind house at the rock lot. surprisingly good and not too overgrown. after work did loop around rock lot on roads 6.57 miles total. devastatingly hilly for just wanting an easy run.

ran on treadmill after work. last speed work before escarpment trail run on sunday. weather looks to be cool which is good since i don't think i have the endurance i used to and the heat would make it far more obvious. maybe thunderstorms though which sucks. 

warmed up 1 mile, did 40 min tempo run...was unsure what speed to go then decided to gradually increase speed. Started first 10 min at 6:11 pace, then second 10 minutes 6:07 pace, 3rd 10 min 6:03 pace, minutes 30-35 (6:00 pace), minutes 35-40 (5:56 pace). Did not feel too  hard which was good. definitely getting fitness up. the two fans i used certainly helped.

cooled down 1 mile.
