| 8 x 300m levee sprints. About 120m is uphill, the rest is flat. Easy jog back to the start for about 2:00 rests. Trying to extend my speed endurance in prep for later work. I treated it sort of like a flag drill and tried to beat my spot each rep. Focused on running fast and relaxed. It hurt after the 3rd rep and by 8 I was really gasping for air.

| 10 recovery @ 8:02 avg. Didn't mean to go so slow, but it was the pace my body wanted. Due to getting out late and the slow pace, I only had time for 10.

| Long run. Warmed up 2 miles then started to pick up the pace. Went 6:30 for mile 3 then averaged 5:58 for 4-12. Slowed it down but stayed at a steady pace of about 6:35 for the final 4 miles. 6:22 average for the whole run. It poured the first few miles and then quieted down. I loved this run. It felt great to just cruise for an extended period of time. It was unusually cool this morning with the rainstorm, the dew point plummeting all the way to 70F. I haven't seen a dew point that low since April.

| 13 moderate in 6:58 average. I'm adjusting to the humidity. It was 82F with 77F dew point for this run and I felt cool. Either that or my brain has fried and I'm going completely loony. But I felt solid this morning.

| In Oklahoma. Got out for an evening/night run with a long fartlek (11 x 3:00 on, 1:00 off). Watch data is erratic due to the forest, but it looked like 5:30-5:40 pace for the most part.

| 8 in 6:58 avg. Trying out my new Bostons. First impression is good, though they may not be cushioned enough for big weekly volume in them. We'll see.

| AM - 4 mile tempo. Trying to get my training back on track. Started slow and cranked it up, though I wanted this to be a modest effort. 5:48, 5:45, 5:33, 5:31 for 5:39 avg. Added 6 x strides after.
PM - 6 easy. 7:20 average.

| 8 x 300m levee sprints. Feeling sore and had a tough time getting going. Reps were slower than the recent past, but at least the last 3-4 were at full speed. I scrapped plans for steady running following the sprints and just jogged easy. 7:44 avg for the whole run.

| AM - 3 WU, 6 @ 5:58 avg, 4 x 200m sprints, CD to 12. I told my body to shoot for 5:40 effort, and it gave me 5:53 and 5:51 the first 2 miles. I opted not to force the pace and just cruise. Felt fine aerobically. Legs are feeling the bump in miles.
5:53, 5:51, 6:02, 6:02, 5:58, 6:02.
PM - 6 stroller miles w/ Rylie. 7:20 avg.

| 12 easy, 7:44 avg. I have a sporadic lower leg pain that has surfaced in the last week and become frequent enough that I'm concerned. Fast running seems to aggravate it and easy running is painless. So nothing more than easy running until I feel like it's under control.
Trying to diagnose through Google, it looks like posterior tibial tendonitis, though the symptoms aren't a perfect match.

| AM - 12 easy, 7:40 avg. I scraped and iced last night. I was a little sore getting out of bed, but zero pain on the run, then a little bit tender walking into work.
PM - 6 easy, no watch, no pain.

| 12 in 7:02 avg. Quicker pace was fine aside from some tightness in my left hammy. Signs of sciatica as well. Lower right leg held up without pain.
