| Normally I take Sunday off running, but I felt like I needed to get the blood flowing in my legs after Saturday's 20 miles. So I took an afternoon recovery run between church services, it also helped clear my mind since I was speaking Sunday night at church. Warm but nice day :) |

| Nice morning run today. It always feels good to get the legs moving on a Monday morning.... even when you do not feel like waking up :)

| Had a work meeting this am and had to take Angel to the dentist for an emergency extraction (infected and quite painful) so I took a little personal time from work and ran this afternoon. Did I mention how I really dislike running in the afternoon? It is hotter, and just feels worse. That being said today was the tempo run that was not! I am pretty sure it is all mental today. I started with a 2 mile warm up and thinking 'I do not think I can push it this afternoon' - of course no real good reason to think that, but mental like I said. After the 2 mile warm up I sped up the next 2 miles to about a 7:50ish pace and then the next 2 at a 7:15-20ish pace. Ahhh then my body decided it could not hold the pace for some reason. Again I think it was mental. I backed off the pace some and just ran the next 3 miles as a base run... So after 9 miles 'Devil Dan' (Bon that is for you if you are reading today) said... 'you're not done are you? Letting your mind get the best of you...tisk tisk'... so I ran a little more and did some quick strides 6x200. After that I was ready to punch myself for the abuse of running those on tired legs. I know it was good for me to teach my body to run fast when tired, but I certainly was not thinking that during them!

| Nice and cool morning. Decent run after yesterday. Decided to race a 5K Saturday so I will run 'slower' the next few and see if I cannot set a new PR. |

| Ahahahahahahha 55 degrees this morning!!! Yes very early but that was all the inspiration I needed. Best run of the week - I felt and feel great. If I did not have work this morning I would push out another 9. Ah well, it pays for a few things (like running shoes) :) |

| AM- 9 vEZ miles. Plan on that 5K in the AM tomorrow so I did not want to skip on aerobic base yet wanted a little rest so hopefully that translates into a good time for me. If not I will just keep working! PM- good day of work, did some fast but brief strides to loosen up :) 6x30sx6:15

| Good race this morning :) Nice weather and decent crowd. 3 of my friends/co-workers raced as well and that always makes for a better day. The race went well, I think I started a bit quick, but did not bonk so that was good. I dropped my pace slightly on that last mile and so I did not break 20, but set my PR so I was pretty happy with that! Rode the bike with Aly for about 3 miles tonight, and that was enjoyable for tonight. Big day tomorrow as I have the entire service!
