Didn't have much time today, but I still managed to get a run in during the Blue Angels' show.

I had planned on doing a long run today, but I had some pain above my foot on the shin.  I turned around and went home before it could get bad.  I'm familiar with this problem, a couple of days off and icing is all that it needs. I don't think I've ever kicked about my mileage without some little injury like this.

Went out to see if a short run would be possible and ended up bulking up to a respectable 8 miles. There was no hint of pain in my ankle, but I did not feel good. During this run.

Coal Creek. Just realized that this run was 22miles in stead of 20 and that I did it 10 minutes faster than last year. (I thought I did it kind of fast last time). That would explain why I was dragging so badly at the end.  These two a days must be teaching me to run faster or something. I cruised through the first segment to the trailhead at 6:30 pace despite a slight uphill.  After that point, the trail starts and it climbs steeply.  I then came back and turned around and gained 5 minutes of negative split in the downhill trail section (3.5 miles). I subsequently gave back all of that time before I'd even gotten back to the island. However, I managed to maintain during the last little bit and ended up with a complete even split. 1:14 out 1:14 back (6:43 pace). Ouch.

Somehow I still made it to 70 miles this week. I ran 12.5 miles in1:17:53 (6:13). But what made it awesome was the monsoon that hit in the second half of the run and monsoons make me indesctutable. First seven miles were uphill and 6:42 pace. Last 5.5 was downhill and 5:37 pace.
