warmed up 0.5 miles then did a time trial to the bench overlook at terre haute. was a bit sticky but apparently warming up before going as hard as you can makes you go faster. i got through the first mile, the top of climb one ~350 vertical feet in 8:01. i admittedly was dead at that point. touched bench in 15:58, breaking my previous record of 16:27 set last year. and faster than the 16:32 i ran on a shortcut trail a couple days ago. ran back down on a different trail for 2.3 miles.

just went for a trail walk yesterday, wasn't in the mood to run. 

am ran to topstone park and did loop 5.5 miles

after work ran with brother at huntington park 6.5 miles. challenged each other on the last hill, want to blame it on my tight right tendon under the knee but i got crushed. i even gave up. it was my most embarrasing showing ever and was scary. i have zero speed.

4.75 miles am, ran to stormfield did raccoon lane then down captain's trail. explored another
trail but it was overgrown and gave up trying to follow it through the swamp. 

had planned on running during lunch, even doing a tempo run on treadmill. brought my lunch only to remember there was a company barbecue. thus no run at lunch!  

pm ran 1.28 miles with kristin at huntington , then hiked 2.

2h 20 min run at devil's den. didn't get too lost. the largest open space in the area at ~1600 acres and yet i've barely been here. now that i live closer to it, i bet i'll be running there a lot.
