| 7 easy. I realized I could squeeze another mile in each morning if I'm a little more efficient with my routine. Should add an easy 5 miles to my week.

| 5xcruise mile @ roughly 1/2 pace. 1:00 rests. Added 2x30s sprints on the way home. Conditions were 74 F/73 dew point, so a slight break in humidity.
Full 3 mile warm-up with a couple of pick ups and strides. Then 5:53, 5:44, 5:51, 5:49, 5:37. I think i could have run #1, 3 & 4 about 5 secs faster each, but all this overheating business has made me cautious.

PM - 5 easy w/ Rylie. The weather is a-changing. This was the first run I didn't have to wring loads of sweat out of my clothes.

| AM - 6 easy. Weighed in pre-run at 149.6, my first under 150. That's 10 lbs off since May.
PM - 4 easy with Rylie. Strangely had a major sugar crash with a mile to go and felt like I could barely stand. But I had given Rylie a granola bar to play with (she gnaws on them without mercy), so I ate that and felt a bit better. She looked at me accusingly when I took it from her, but I think she forgives me.

| 10 mile tempo @ marathon pace; 2x30s sprints
Conditions were 82 F w/ 75 F dew point, so I was really just hoping not to crash and burn again. I decided to take the first couple miles easier, get into a groove until 6 miles, and then if I was still feeling okay to push it the last 4. I averaged 6:20 the first 6 (#2 was 6:29, fell asleep a little bit) and I actually felt good still. I upped the tempo and went through the last 4 in 6:04, 6:09, 6:09, 5:58. Wow. No overheating. I felt like I could keep going awhile. My shoes got soggy at mile 7 but my legs seemed to go numb and it didn't matter. Final time 1:02:20 for 6:14 average. I've never felt so proud about an effort like this. I figure I've only got 3 or 4 more weeks of heat and then I can start pushing the paces and find out exactly what kind of shape I'm in. Winter is coming.
Also, this is my first week over 70 miles. It's been a pleasant surprise to find that training hasn't been a big drain on my family life. I seem to find ways to sneak in a few extra miles here and there, and suddenly I'm going from 60 to 70 to 75 and it's not taking a lot of time. I think I can get to 80 and keep roughly the same schedule.
