Relentless

afternoon - 15.25 River Trail Loop.  Extended the River Trail on the loop into Bloomington Hills and had to hit the park restroom.  Then Molly's Mile when I got home.  Just a nice normal run.  (Hyper Speed 2 36.25)

afternoon - 13 Hospital/Green Pole.  Out and back to both, first with the team and then on my own.  Tired lately.  Molly's Mile. (Boston 790.5)

AM - 10 Clyde's.  Tough to wake up, very tired.  Not a bad run however.  Just easy cheesy with the guys.  Still think the Neo are just a junk shoe. (Neo 49)

afternoon - 11 GS/Shinob Kibe.  Up into Green Springs for 4 with the team and then over to Shinob Kibe and up.  9:29 up and 6:22 down.  Didn't feel as fast as last time (up or down), but its the first time I put a watch on it so I guess that will be the standard bearer for next time.  .65 miles up the trail from the cairn just off Paiute.  Molly's Mile. (NB 110 -11)

afternoon - 13.5 Mustang Pass.  Gould's Gold!  Took the team up to Mustang Pass and then ran the trail.  I then hit the trail for a 2nd loop.  On the 2nd, I pushed the pace pretty hard on the trail and was really moving - going 5:30 on a trail is very invigorating!  As I finished up the trail I ran into one of my old runners - and a PVXC legend - Eric Gould.  It was great seeing him and catching up for a few minutes.  Finished off the run by heading back to PV from the top of GS and then Molly's Mile.  (NB 110 -13.5)

afternoon - 18 Grass/Foremaster.  Got 8 in on the grass barefoot before heading out on Foremaster with the team.  Then I just extended with the Lutheran run and Molly's Mile at home.  A bit tired by the end, but okay for end of the week and first barefooting in some time.  (Barefoot '12 8)(Rocket 226)

AM - 20.25 Fields/Parkway.  A good run with some of the guys today.  A bit crisp out.  Good deep conversation along the way and then an extension with Logan to finish of the 20.  (F50 42.25)

Got what I needed to to get my mileage where I wanted.  I know 100 is just a number, but it is such a nicer number than 99!  But, really, it is the idea that pushes me to that.  And I feel pretty decent for 100 on 7 runs and back to back longer runs.

Goals for next week: my mileage is backing off.  Who knows what I will do in the half?  Survive!  And make it through what looks to be a tough week in the family.
