Hit 200 summer miles today.  300 to go before September.  So nice and cool this morning. I could actually see my breath on the river trail

Wheeler Farm for some soft surface running.  Ran into an old friend on the trail. Saw a fox.  Lily came with me.

Finally hit a double digit run.  It was tough.  Trying to keep progressing.  Sore from shoulders and core work

Week 4 of a mileage build.  Probably do a cut back next week.  And then build to 50/week.

Had an insomnia night so missed running yesterday.  Still went to lift.  I planned on a cut back week next week.  Might have to be this week instead

Saw an owl this morning.  I think it's a sign I run too early.

I thought this would end up a down week, but hit my highest mileage and longest run for the year.  Glad to get it in.  And over 300 of my 500 mile summer.  Let's see what I can manage.

So sore from leg day lifting yesterday.   Got new shoes though and really liked them .  I need a little more cushion in my old age so I went for the Kayanos rather than the GT-2000s
