Philippians 4:13

Got up early and ran 6M again on the hills around Lava Hot Springs by myself this time.  Heading home today so got the run in early, made a big breakfast, packed up the camper and hit the road.  A great second camping experience in the new trailer!

Nice run on a beautiful day!  2.25M to the Community Park to meet up with Jon Allen and Lynette.  15M with Jon and Lynette down through Snake River Landing and around the greenbelt through Freeman Park and back home.  Lynette pealed off at about 13M then Jon and I ran together back to the park for about 17M.  Then the last 3M I ran back home at a slow MP.  Overall a great run to start off the week!

8M slow and easy early this morning in nice weather.  Nothing special, just a normal untimed early morning run.  (Trigon)

6.5M at lunch on a beautiful day once again.  1M wu pace (6:30) then 5M at MP (6:18 - 6:04 pace) which felt ok but a bit hard than I wanted today (probably from yesterday's 20 miler).  I was shooting for more like a 5:50 pace but it was not to be.  0.5M cd at 6:44 pace for a total time of 40:43 (6:16 avg. pace).  (Ride)

The next couple of days will be busy at work so no lunch runs.  Therefore I will try to get 10M in each of the next 2 mornings.  Friday is the work golf tourney and Kami works on Saturday morning...this week's running routine is shot!

Out the door at 4am for a longer run due to work commitments today.  10.1M at an embarassingly slow pace  (I won't even say it) but I got 'er done.  Hard time getting going and waking up then energy drain late in the run just made it hard to pick it up (though my last mile was my fastest!) so this was a true recovery run! 

Now off to work meetings all day today.

1M in the early evening with my son as he was trying out his new Asics running shoes...he did great and we finished a mile in about 9:00.

Sore throat, stuffy head...spring cold, yuck.  9M easy early but better than yesterday.  Overall a decent run, nothing special to report.

More meetings today, so no lunch run likely.

After a long day of meetings, met customers for drinks then headed to the zoo to see the new sloth bears with the family.  My son wanted to run again, so the whole family went out and ran a mile (my daughter biked) on a wonderful summer evening.

Still have a slight head cold and sore throat, but not bad.  Slept in til 4:20 then out the door at 4:30 for a 9M run in 1:07:16 (7:29 avg. pace).  Better than the last couple of morning runs, but still nothing great. 

Off to the annual work golf tourney today.  Speed walking for 18 holes keeping up with the guys in the carts on a beautiful day.  I will count it as 1.4M.

I determined that I don't have a cold, but instead am having allergy symptoms from all the pollen in the air right now...never had this before.

9M early this morning before my wife had to leave for work.  Nice morning, 50 degrees and no wind.  The allergies are making it hard to run and feel energized.

I will try to till the garden this morning before we take the trailer out to camp with friends later today.
