80 minute Monday run. I felt pretty good, considering I was dragging Saturday. My achilles is feeling pretty good today. I 've been icing and massaging like crazy. Dumb tendonitis never leaves me alone. 7:13 average.

Weird week this week. I am going on Pioneer Trek on Wednesday. There's not going to be any chance of running. Not optimal, but some things are more important than running. This will be a fun chance to serve the youth. I've never been on trek before. So, I will run pretty hard the first three days and count my trek miles. Then, I have plenty of building time when I get back.

Trek Day 3: 7 miles. Women's Pull. They picked a long nasty hill to pull the handcart up. My arms, quads, and calves got an intense workout.

Final day trek: 5.5 miles! Glad to be heading home. What a great experience. I didn't run, but I definitely worked hard.
