| North side - 7 miles easy, averaged 8:29. All body parts seemed to have made it through the toughest part of the build up. A little bit of hip tightness today (it's not asymmetrical, which is good), no doubt from trying to push in the final mile or so yesterday with pretty bad form downhill
I checked out the course on YouTube last night, and I have some Garmin data from a friend. It looks there are some drops of close to 200 feet in a mile, which is pretty serious compared to what I am used to. However, I built in a mile into my long runs that has about 115 feet of drop, which should prepare me okay. Sugarloaf Marathon Course

AM: 9th street out and back - 7 miles, averaged 8:04. Did some strides to try to loosen the hips. Finally got moving on the last one around 4:30 pace.
PM: Nothing. It's beautiful out too, but there's too much to be done. As much I wanted to get out this will slow me down a bit.

AM: North side - 6 miles, averaged 8:06. Warmish. Beautiful.
PM: 6 miles steady, averaged 7:23 w/ 1 mile @ MP (6:48). A bit too fast for the first day in 80 degrees, but I was shirtless, feeling the end of the semester relief, and a bit manly. Hoping this weight will be shed this summer. Averaging 80 miles per week for the last 3 months and I am not far from where I've been. Heck of a lot faster though I guess.

Evening - 7 miles, averaged 7:38. Did some good strides, but they winded me a bit, so I knew I was beat. Felt exhausted today, not all of which is from running pretty much straight for 14+ weeks with almost not cutback weeks other than an occasional slight dip. Was very surprised to see the averaged pace when I checked my data.
My run left me feeling better after a tough afternoon. Coach Dodge was really trying to talk me into taking a day off, but I told him to kiss off.

AM: 7 miles, averaged 8:04. Felt pretty hungry after, which means my eating and diet should be returning to post-end-of-semester normal.
PM: Jefferson High - 7 miles steady, averaged 7:19. Did some strides on the way back. Trying to keep from getting stale.

AM: 7 miles, averaged 8:03. Tried to frighten a chihuahua, but the little critter kept coming after me. Stupid owner looking on, doing pretty much nothing.
PM: 5.5 miles, averaged 8:00. Went to check on the flooding on the Wabash trail. It was all the way to the golf course, which is quite a distant from where it was when I did the Hanson's workout a few weeks ago. It will probably take a while to straighten out, but the water does seem to be receding.
