AM/Lunch: 13.2 miles, averaged 8:49. HR 145. 

9-Mile Steady Aerobic Progression 

9:00-7:55. 144-160 HR. HR a bit high/elevated, but I felt pretty good and just rolled with it, not pushing too hard. Just under 2 hours. 

First 60-mile week in a little while. Maybe last year around this time, but I don't pay as much attention as I used to.

Get my stitches out around noon tomorrow. Did a short bike session today as it was raining and thundering.

Took the boys to Lawrence Tech with me today. They were well behaved during my classes. We walked around the small campus for a bit and checked out some of the buildings I have never been in. They enjoyed it.
