| Bike path to Soldier's Home Road - 18 miles, average 7:23.
Ran with Brandon and Julian, who looked like a modern day Jesus coming out from his loft apartment without shoes or a shirt (he's a barefoot runner). I think they did a 16 or so, and I ran to and from the meetup point. I had a little fun around mile 15 or 16 after we came down the hill from campus and pushed the pace a little. They caught back up and asked if they missed the memo. Really I was just seeing how my legs were doing. A little tired throughout the run, but I am feeling good. At least I'm getting tan.
Headed to Toledo to visit Megan while she is at her parents'. We will be doing some last minute wedding things. Might see if I can entice her with my shirtlessness and go to the University of Toledo track and do something short on Wednesday. Might just make getting out the door for 70-80 minutes each day the goal until Thursday.

| Unscheduled day off. Megan and I got up late. Late lunch, early beer and that pretty much did it. Picked up the marriage license. Call it family time. I'll see what the gents are doing for a track workout tomorrow and see if the UT track is open. Or maybe a medium LR and hit something faster back in town Friday.

| University of Toledo Trail - 12 miles, averaged 8:15.
The humidity barometer was high: my shorts were several inches above my current tan line.
Megan went out about 3.5 miles and went back. I continued and did my own out and back. The boys did 4 mile tempos back in Lafayette. Julian said ~5:50 pace, Brandon texted me his splits, which were well under 5:50. Not sure if he ran with them or not. I've told him he's going to be in shape to run 75 minutes in the half this fall. A good way from low 30 on the track, but he's still got time to get back in that kind of shape if he wants.
If you want to watch someone struggle, watch a colorblind guy try to guess the colors in a selection of dinner napkins. It's a good thing I don't have to match my running gear.

| AM: Courtland Tempo Loop - 10 miles w/ 3 mile LT tempo. Not a stellar workout, but I wasn't sure I could even make it through the warmup.
6:13 average: 6:09, 6:18, 6:13. It's frustrating to know I hit those paces at the end of 8 mile tempos this winter, but I am marking it here once again to remind myself to appreciate fitness when it's there and good workouts when we have them.
Need to get out the door at 7 or before. Today's weather was pretty decent though.
Deep threshold
PM: North side - 5.25 miles, averaged 7:51

I have perfected the side dish known as "The Jason." It will be tricky when I have a restaurant because everything is named after me. Steamed broccoli with hummus and a generous smattering of kimchi (vinagar-free because the cheap stuff just doesn't taste half as good) to which I added steamed red kale from the farmers' market.
