PM - 19 miles on the treadmill for my long run today. Too warm and humid outside for a long run this afternoon, plus I was having some GI issues and potentially had a need for a bathroom nearby - so indoor treadmil miles was the answer. Watched some soccer and then the PGA Championship while listening to an audiobook.

PM - lunchtime workout - 2 x 2 miles at MP with a 5 min rest between. Warm up and cool down - all on the treadmill. This was very manageable today for me with good HR and pace at 6:45-to 6:49.

AM - so I did not feel like doing a morning run today - as I awoke a little tired and fatigued - but my dog, Finn was having none of it. He whined and cajoled - essentially imploring me to venture out into the dark and rain with him. So we did. 3 miles easy.

PM - lunchtime workout on the treadmill. 1 mile warm up then 8 miles uptempo with the last mile at MP. Avg pace 7:05. Decent effort. A bit higher on the HR then I would have liked - but I also probably should have taken an extra day of rest/easy running before hitting this. Pleased nonetheless. Easy aerobic running through the weekend planned.

AM - got a late start this morning - very hilly route - and an untimely fall between miles 13 and 14 but it is in the books. 20.25 miles.
