| Treadmill - 5 miles in 35:24. I think they switched treadmills and the slow one is to the far right, or two weeks of down mileage has me feeling frisky. My vacation weight would suggest otherwise.

| AM: Flourtown - 6.25 miles, averaged 8:17.
Felt like crap. Extremely sluggish. Humidity and dew point were up and there's apparently 500+ feet of gain in this route, which is about 4-5 times my usual gain in Lafayette. Hopefully both reasons are why I felt so slow. I was reconning another tempo loop but I missed the name of the road. I think it's going to work though judging by the topography and maps I have. 3-4 miles out depending on direction and it's a bit over a mile around. On a rough day the climb back home won't be fun though.
PM: Avenue loop - 6.5 miles, averaged 7:51
This loop was busier than I expected. Might have to add it as an non-rush hour run. Lots of traffic and interruptions. Lots of broken glass and trash, but I'm pretty used to that.

| AM: Neighborhood and Chresheim Valley Park - 5.5 miles, averaged 9:05. Did a few strides.
Did some trail running, but a .75 mile loop on single track isn't my idea of trail running. Still, another area crossed of the list. Need to check out some of the ones in Wissahickon Park where I run the flats.
I felt quite sluggish again today. Not sure why. Strides took a while to warm up.
PM: Chestnut Hill Neighborhood + Springside Academy track - 5 miles, averaged 8:11 w/ 8 x 200 strides

| AM: 12 miles, averaged 7:35 w/ 3 x 10 minutes (3:00 recovery jogs)
Warmed up 30 minutes to Forbidden Drive and went straight into the workout
I forgot to turn off my auto lap so the workout looks like a game of miles and kilometers
6:17/3:42 (6:17, 5:55)
6:03/3:56 (6:03, 6:15)
6:15/3:43 (6:15, 5:58)
Overall averaged ~6:10
25 minute cool down
Not really pleased with this one, but I'll keep working on getting a good workout. For a long time I rarely missed. This is about 10 seconds slower than estimated LT. Still feeling a bit sluggish but better today.
PM: Neighborhood - 4.5 miles, averaged 8:08. I told grumpy Jason he could no longer run with me. Nice shakeout. Helped that the weather is cool and dry, but still warm enough to be comfortable.

Really enjoyed this one. Megan asked if she could come. I wish she always came with me. I actually enjoy running when she does. Took a slightly different route into Wissahickon Valley Park. It's a really nice area.
Incidentally the average listing price for house in Chestnut Hill is $800,000. We don't belong here :-)
