     We arrived home from our vacation and I left on a run just before dark. I took a small flashlight for after dark since I would be mostly on dirt road but the moon was bright enough I never used it. first 4 miles were 8:11 AP. Next 8 I averaged 7:33 pace including a last mile just under 7 min.  7:48 AP

     Went over to Weston Canyon to get in some up and down hill. I wasn't able to get out until afternoon so the temp was already in the 80s. My son came with me and ran a warm up mile at the reservoir then I ran the 3 miles to the bottom while he rode the bike. There was a substantial headwind going down so he rode in front so I could draft off him. I did the first 3 at 6:29 pace. after about a 4 min rest I ran back to the top at 7:32 AP. Another short break then back down at 6:17 AP. Ave pace for 9 miles of tempo was 6:46.

     Ran 17 this morning. I didn't feel to speedy this morning [probably because of the extra bike miles this week] so I just ran whatever pace felt easy. 8:17 AP.
