| | Boise, ID 6:30am Pace: 8:06 A little slower than usual this morning, but I was still a little sore/tired from Saturday's long run and Randy's wife had a baby this weekend, so he probably hadn't slept much. The weather was great: overcast with a light rain towards the end. We picked up the pace in the last couple of miles and finished pretty strong. Good start to the week.

| | Boise, ID 6:00 am Pace: 8:41 Weather was nice this morning. Overcast in the low 60s. I expected to get rained on, but it didn't start until after I got back. I took a slightly different route. Cloverdale over the freeway to Overland (I forgot how narrow the shoulder of that overpass is) to Maple Grove to Ustick and home. I kind of just plugged along at a comfortable pace most of the morning until the last mile and a half when I saw someone running ahead of my and decided to try to pass him. I was feeling pretty good about myself until I passed the guy and realized that the dude was at least 80 years old. So I flipped him the bird and yelled "get the lead out grampa!" Actually, I smiled, waved and said good morning, but I think he knew what I meant. iPod song of the day: "Rockin' Down The Highway" -- The Doobie Brothers

| | Boise, ID 6:30 am Pace: 8:01 It's funny how some days when you think you are feeling fine, you just struggle to get through the workout. Then on other days when you start out not feeling it, you get some energy and kick it in. This morning was more of the latter. Started out sluggish but picked up the pace later in the run and pushed it pretty good the last couple of miles.

| | Boise, ID 6:00 am Pace: 8:41 I kind of had a case of the I Don't Want To Runs this morning, but with the marathon in just over three weeks, I ran anyway. It only took about a mile to get over it. Usually just getting out the door is the hardest part. I took Cloverdale to Victory to Five Mile to Overland and back home on Cloverdale. Weather was good, easy run. Not a bad morning at all. iPod song of the day: "Whatever I Fear" -- Toad the Wet Sprocket

Meridian, ID 6:30 am Pace: 8:08 8:08 isn't bad for runing alone on a Friday. My running partner backed out. Something about having to take his kids to a fiddle competition. He's kind of an odd dude. Weather was nice, a little cooler that usual, in the mid 50s. Ready to go long tomorrow. iPod song of the day: "Tahiti, Tahiti" -- Nā Waiho'olu'u O Ke Ānuenue

| | Boise, ID 9:00 am Pace: 8:32 I didn't do a long run today. I decided to sleep in and just do 10. I'll get in a 20-miler next Saturday. That will make four long runs before Seattle. That will have to be enough. It was wet and rainy all morning. I ran from my house down Cloverdale and took Emerald to town and then ran up 16th and Sherman to 6th then down to the Capitol. I met my wife there and watched the kids do the Capitol Kid's Race. Riley ran well and Alex walked it again. I could tell that she was hurting towards the end. Probably from her leg brace, but she finished it again. I was really proud of her. I think only doing ten was a good idea this morning. For some reason running in the rain seems to suck the energy out of me.
