| PM - two runs of 3 miles separated by a 30 minute break for a work-related phone call. First one was indoors, and the second outdoors.

| PM - 8.5 miles or so outside on a hilly route. The effort I had to exert was way too high compared to the pace which was on the slow-side. I felt depleted nutritionally and dehydrated. Need to re-group and examine my intake. It made for a high "misery factor" rating for what should have been a rather routine easy training run. On the positive side, my weight is down :-]

| PM - 7 miles on the treadmill - felt much better today. HR in a normal zone, perceived effort matched pace - all is well.

| AM - just 3.5 miles or so this morning in Gainesville before making the trip back home. Thirty years ago I graduated from the University of Florida and yesterday my youngest daughter graduated from the very same school as did my two other daughters, my son-in-law, my sister and my grandfather. "Circle of life" thoughts ruminated my head during my run.

| AM - just a short 2 miles with Finn before work - he looked like he needed some exercise and I was short on time.
PM - 5.5 miles at lunchtime outside. Getting even warmer out now - up to the 90's by the end of the week.

| PM - 5.5 miles on the treadmill. Been feeling rather "fried" lately. Made a concerted effort at going easy and staying in a low HR zone. Felt rather good and refreshed after this one.

| AM - 6 miles easy before getting ready for a backyard barbecue with friends and family.
PM - 4.25 miles on the golf course with Finn. We got separated when he was off-lead and although I had him on a radio collar - We could not find each other (probably because he could not see me and my calls were echoing in the woods). Anyway it cut the run short. When I finally reconnected with him he was completely exhausted and panting like a freight train. We sort of walked and ran the last mile home as he was so tired. My guess is that he was running all over the place trying to find me and follow my voice and radio collar. Anyway he’s all good now.

| AM - 6.75 miles with Finn in a light and steady rain. Went to breakfast at Maple Street Biscuits with my children and then we drove up to the North Georgia mountains for a hike on Mount Yonah. Rain was heavy at times but not enough to deter us. Cookout this evening.
