| | I couldn't find my Garmin this morning. Bummer because it felt like a great run. I'm pretty sure I was cruising along at under 8 min. miles. My daughter had put it on the book shelf so that the baby wouldn't get hold of it. |

| | I wanted a nice easy run today. So I took Ginger. She did really good. I haven't taken her forever. When I used to go with her I would try to train her by telling her left or right at the turns. It seems like she was remembering the commands, but maybe she was just getting lucky.
Time - 24:13 (avg. pace 8:21) Splits - 8:27, 8:22, 8:14 I was kind of letting her dictate the pace. So much for easy.

I didn't run yesterday because my right foot was hurting. It felt better today. I wanted to get a long run in, but I got up way late. I did my crazy attempt at mile intervals instead. Oh, before that I did my 50 sit-ups, 10 push-ups, 2 sets of planks for as long as I could, some side planks (thanks Coach Cara), and I almost did a full pull-up. Woo-hoo! Time - 44:56 (8:03 avg. pace) Splits - 8:25 - warm up 6:56 - 5:49 best 8:53 - rest 7:27 - 6:31 best 8:58 -rest
4:18 for 0.58 - 7:23 pace - 6:09 best (I just saw on the Most Recent Entries board Rhett, Kerry, Burt. Three people who live or have lived in Mohave County.)

I did my favorite run again this morning up Usury Pass with some of my Ragnar team. It was about 4:15 minutes slower than last time but felt like the same effort. That must have to do with the speed work I did yesterday. Before the run I did 50 sit-ups, 10 push-ups, planks, side planks, and almost a pull-up.
There were so many cyclists out this morning. I couldn't believe how many there were. I should have counted them. It would have been funner than counting prairie dogs. I know some of them were the same people I saw going up and coming back down. That's one of the things that makes this run so cool.
Time - 1:21:32 (avg. pace 8:56)
Splits - 9:02, 9:59, 9:45, 9:04, 9:02, 9:16, 8:14, 7:56, 8:13, 1:03 for 0.13 (7:58 pace)
