no running today, but did do cross training on the bike. Road out across the missouri river into nebraska and back, pretty cool stuff, about 14-15 miles in total, didnt ride super hard, just nice and steady, felt good to work some kinks out of the legs, maybe making my first fall assault on a sub 1:20 13.1 miles in two weeks (sept. 12)

felt good with great weather this morning. Wrapping up the month with 6 in 43:22 or around 7:14 per mile. trying to get a fall race calendar hammered out. thinking 5k on Sept. 12, 15k on the 19th, and 5k on the 26th, followed by a capstone half mary in sioux city on the 17th of october. Then in november probably a thanksgiving race and living history farms.

5xmile today, ran them in 5:43, 5:38, 5:58, 5:52 and 5:45. Felt pretty decent, am battling a head cold and all. Other than that a good day. Went over 1000 miles on the year today!

Very casual mileage today, 4.5 in 33:36, or 7:28 per mile. Really tried to keep it around 8, just couldnt do it. Making a conscious effort to slow it up is good though.

Got off course, so i had to improvise, even still there is some discrepency on the maps. It says it was only 5.86 or so, I remapped it at 5.94, but I had it mapped out to 6 and then couldnt find a turn it told me too, so who knows if its even right, either way Ill call it 6 in 37:17 or 6:13 per mile. Not a bad workout, was hoping for a tempo around 6:07's, but ill take 6:13, anytime I can get practice running hard for an extended period of time is good.
