| PM: 12 miles. HR 154. Stridlek Workout of 3(6 x 45'). Equal distance recovery and 5' jog between sets. I warmed up with Megan and griped about retiring from running. Workout went fine.It's been a bit too long since I did anything of quality other than an easy long run. |

Last mile hard in 5:31. It was pushing 90 degrees. Short on time.
Kind of a dud week with 3 runs of 4, 4, 5, but I got out.
Megan and I went to a Shakespeare play in the University of Michigan Arboretum with her colleague and husband. It was interesting (changing of stage, using the woods and trees), but I really hate Shakespeare, mostly because I never studied him and didn't really care to (even after 3 degrees in English). We had a good time and the weather was absolutely perfect.

Hot. Morning run uncomfortable with bad air quality. Better this afternoon, but hotter. Crazy crowded. Part of the loop goes through a beach, which makes things interesting.

| Off. Needed to take a late nap. I was going to run after dinner, but started drinking beer instead. Two days off in a row coming to me, so I will long some miles. | |

Cut down the first 9 miles from 9:00-6:08. Cooled down 2 miles. Some light rain made the run more comfortable than it might have been.
PM: 4.25 miles. HR 133.
Very slow shakeout. Loopy. I got some pull-ups in, which I recently started doing again. My extreme lower core section doesn't really like them. Need to get back to core and hip stuff to help with that.

| PM: 5 miles. Megan and I got back from Toledo. We had a short visit last night and today. We went out with a bunch of her friends last night and stayed at her uncle's. I managed to drink four martinis. Good thing I didn't really plan on a long run. Ran a few miles when we got home in the evening. |

Absolutely gorgeous morning. Cool and sunny. First real-deal AM run in a while. The PF in my foot has gotten worse. It's been tight for some time. I have been rolling it with a golf ball. Just need to do it more. I'm standing a lot more at work and I think that's the culprit.
PM: 5 miles. HR 140.

First few with Megan. Legs were not working the first several miles. Not like that weren't fast, but that my muscles were not firing. I assume it's from standing. It seems to happen since I became a retired academic.

| Lunch: 10 miles. HR 161. Blown Workout. Far too many beers and a little warm. Usually neither are much of a problem, but I struggled. Plan was an 8-mile tempo, which is always a good workout for me. Could barely manage 7-minute pace. PM: 4 miles. HR 133. |
