Relentless

morning - 11.5 3x2000's (attempted 5).  Kind of an interesting morning.  Started by taking Molly into the Desert (have been working with her leash off, and she has been doing very well).  Then ran over to the school for 2000's.  Neither my heart or mind was into this - so my body acted accordingly.  Times were weak from 7:00-7:10 and I just couldn't get going.  So part way into the 4th, I just jogged off the track.  I hate not finishing a workout.  On the return run home, I decided to push the last two miles.  I ended up pushing them pretty good; well below Tinman pace.  So actually I kind of made up for the last 2 repeats that way.  (old Ohana -11.5)

Planned on getting in a short evening run, but Rylee's swim meet went longer than expected and I was pretty tired from working in the yard all weekend, so I dropped it.

afternoon - 10.25 5x(2x200+1x400) Old Man Hills.  Workout was tough and I was spent, and so were the kids that did it.  Weights and then Molly's Mile.  (Stratus grey 421.6)

AM - 3 AC.  Hip felt good after a couple hard workouts.  (Five Fingers 146.35)

afternoon - 11 Parkway.  Recovery run (and long run for some of the kids) up on the Parkway.  8xbarefoot striders and then Molly's Turf run.  Still feeling the last two days a little.  (Barefoot '10 21)(Free 147.7)

afternoon - 9 track.  This wasn't a hard track workout (and not all on the track either), but after DI warm ran 3x1000 with the girls.  They did a good job and hit times.  I finished with a 1600 with Cowboy in just under 5:40 (next week I'll run all 3 with him to bring them closer to 5:30).  Then we cooled down by running to visit Austin.  Molly's Turf run.  (Boston 57.75)

AM - 3 AC.  Just the regular morning stuff.  (Five Fingers 149.35)

afternoon - 11 River Trail.  Ran down the trail a bit and then got into a 4 mile Tempo.  The boys did great with Trevor leading throughout (in fact, I had to keep the reins on him).  We hit 5:51, 5:46, 5:41, and 5:35.  And the good sign was that we all felt like we were getting stronger throughout.  Finished with 8xbarefoot striders, weights, and Molly's Mile.  (Landreth blue 255.5)(Barefoot '10 22)

AM - 16.5 Mustang Pass.  Went out early onto Mustang Pass.  Actually looped the Pass section twice to add a few more miles.  Another real fun trail that is close to town (so I am sure they will destroy it soon!).  Sand was starting to dry out a little, but we got a lot more rain later in the afternoon through Sunday.  Molly's Desert run.  (Triumph silver 208.65)

Weeks have been good lately.  I think that some of the mojo is starting to come back.

Goals for next week:  More of the same, and just keep it rollin' in a positive direction.
