3.5 am run

6 miles after work.

I went out for a longer run today after work but it was too hot. I waited til 7:30 p.m. and it was still around 100 degrees. So tonight I talked myself into the longer morning runs. Tomorrow I'll start getting up earlier and doing my long run for the day before work. I'll still run in the afternoon after work but only 3-5 miles...that is do-able. Anything more than 5 miles is death in this heat. I've been losing 6-8 lbs every run in water weight, on top of that it zaps my energy to zero.

Did a 9 mile morning run.

Ran the truf farm loop. It was nice this morning, but not cool like I thought it would be. It was still around 80-83 degrees at 5:30 a.m. However that feels a lot better than 100...and if its 100 on the news then out on the blacktop street at 6 pm its 105-110.

I need a summer home back home in Torrey.

Did 3.5 miles tonight.

Did a nice run up in the trails above my house. Saw a rattle snake right in the middle of the trail all coiled up sleeping. I decided to leave it alone and went on my way.

Ran 6 more miles tonight from my in-laws around the base of Formaster and up by Costco, under the freeway and back home.

Did a quick 5 mile run before work...Will do more tonight with the running club.

Didn't go to the club. Ran from my house down to Pine View High (2 miles) then ran 3 miles on the track while my wife did a sprint workout. Then we drove home.

Did a good run early Saturday morning with the Club. Ran nice and easy for the first 9 or so miles then started to up the tempo the rest of the way in. Felt good until the last mile and a half then stated slowing down. Raced a guy riding a Mt. bike for about 3 and a half miles up the hill. I trailed him for a whle then passed him until we split the trail and went on our ways. He said to me " its hard for me to keep up with you... and I'm on a bike". So after that I felt like the pace wasn't too bad. Because he said he rides 16 miles a day....

Glad to up the miles this week and feel good along the way.
