Pushed Myler out and back into B-hills. It was a nice (none windy) morning and it really made me happy to be home. I just took it nice and steady while Myler pointed out cool stuff along the way. 

It was nice to not have the insane humidity. I can honestly say I may only have sweat as much on this whole run as I did in one mile of running while in the Caribbean.

Dropped Myler off at grandmas and then had to go drop Mik'L's truck off at the shuttle location. She comes in late tonight and needed a ride home. Anywho I ran from there over to the DC and then did the Bloomington loop then back around the B-hills run to the house. Legs felt sloppy and form was floppy. I got no sleep last night and that was the main factor as I was just dead and kind if dizzy 3 miles into it. Went to sleep last night at 11 p.m- Myler woke up at 2 a.m and I gave him some milk. Then I laid there for one hour and there was no way I was going to sleep so I got up and went out to work in the yard at 3 a.m. Did that for 2 hours and built the chickens a sweet new home dug down in the ditch bank out of straw bails. It's actually a pretty nice set up. Then I came in and thought about sleeping so I laid down and Myler was crying by 5:30. I gave him another bottle and he stayed in the crib until around 7. So I maybe got 4.5 hours of sleep and I was already jet lagged. Oh I just need like 12 good, solid hours to get caught up.

B-hills loop this morning. Mik'L got home from PHX late last night and will go to Vegas on Thursday and Saturday. Anyways she was here to watch Myler so I could go do a run. Legs felt like they had clamps on them for the first 6 miles but then I warmed up and enjoyed the last 2 miles. Pretty morning. 

P.M- Pushed Myler around the River loop. It was mildly windy and with the jogger it seemed a little much but we made it through. Legs felt pretty good and I'm guessing I need to do some kind of formal workout with "speed" or effort outside of 7 min pace. But I'm pretty lazy when it comes to that. I'll try hard to hit one this week sometime.

Out and back into B-hills. I'm running like crap right now and totally not into it. Hopefully I can just keep my head above water and kind of break out of this funk from being sick and being on vacation. Now I'll spend the rest of the week in Vegas and finally come home for good on Sunday.

9 miles this morning on the treadmill here at the hotel.

8.2 miles on the treadmill this evening.

I wish I was just home but if I have to be in Vegas it's nice to have a free penthouse room with all the room service I can order and my wife is making $$$ on top. Myler and I just kick it around the resort here at Monte Carlo. One more day then we go home Sunday morning.

12.8 miles on the treadmill here in Vegas. I finished off my treadmill running... It seems so hard for me to hold pace and mileage on the machine. All the runs I did down here I set it at a moderate pace between 6 min and 6:40 for the bulk of the mileage. So not easy pace anyways but on the treadmill it seemed extra hard. Now to relax the rest of the day with Myler.
