Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

Because of the workout last evening, I did not want to meet with the group at 5:30am.  Made it at 6:00am and we ran a basically continuous run around the neighborhood just south of the high school, to Canterwood and Rustic Rds., back to the neighborhoods and then back to the high school.  Steve told us to run easy today but I found myself running just a little faster than I probably should  have run.  Oh well, we can't be perfect all the time.  Later on I put in some faster strides on the treadmill (16).  That was fun.

Make sure you get at least a couple of very easy days a week. Don't worry about yesterday as long as you get some very easy running in this week. Sometimes a hard-medium-easy type pattern is best but only if the the hard day was not particularly brutal. I was not sure how you all would feel the next day considering the heat. So I thought it would be best to err on the safe side.
