Long run from San Clemente around Dana Point and back.  Climbed a hill out of Dana Point that was killer steep, but fortunately short.  The weather was great for running - cool and sunny.  Pace - 8:16

4 miles around home at 5:30 AM.  Every day I get attacked by a small black bird about half a mile from home.  He follows me for about 100 yards hovering 2-4 feet over my head and chattering  like mad.  Pace 8:03

AM run around the neighborhood on a nice, but overcast morning.  I know I am not a morning person, but I really struggle with getting a decent pace going in the early AM particularly with all the hilly sections.  It seems to affect me more than later in the day.  The attack bird sneaked up on me today, but only harrassed me for about 100 ft.  I am thinking he would make a nice treat for my cats.  Pace - 7:48

 

Noon run on the greenbelt.  The clouds parted for a while and made for a great 6.2 mile run.  Pace - 7:22

Raining hard this morning at home so I reluctantly went to the gym for a short TM run. I ran later this morning since I had to wait for a contractor we hired to start some repairs on the garage.  Sometimes it would be nice to just rent

Noon run of 7.3 miles with sunshine around the greenbelt. Pace 7:37

Long run from home in the morning.  Ran out Canyon to Jameston, south to Yellowstone and back on Sunnyside.  Felt good for most of the run, but ran out of gas on the last mile so I walked on part of the uphill for a slow mile.  Pace 8:03

Ran 13.5 miles from home on a clear, breezy day.  This is my last longer run before the marathon.  I ran a decent pace up to 13.1 miles just to see what my half marathon time would be and then walked for a minute before trudging up the rest of the hill to home. The half marathon time was 1:40:02. I have not run a half masrathon yet, but that is my best time in practice.     Pace 7:38
