AM 18 in 2:21:11 (7:50).  I'm leave on vacation on Friday and I know that getting a long run in on Saturday is going to be difficult, so I tried to get one in this morning.  Woke up at 3:45 (went to bed at 8:30 last night) and started running at 4:00.  Just kept things at a steady state.  Legs didn't have much to give today, so I never really pushed the pace.  Ran to slow to get to 20 miles and eventually just ran out of time.  Went down by Westlake High School and then west.  Came back home and then went down on the farm road for a bit.

AM 2.75 warm up with some strides and then mile repeats with .25 recovery. Splits were 6:09, 6:07, 6:08, 6:05, and then I was going to do a fifth one around 6:20-6:30 but got confused and only did .75 at about 6:22 pace. Best run since I've been here. Soaking wet about five miles into this run. Cooled down until I got to 11.

AM 21.5 in just over 2:52:00 (8:02 pace). Went 10 miles north and back. Added a bit at the end. I had to be ultra cautious cause i didn't want to get myself in trouble due to the humidity. I wore my water belt just to be safe. Hit the 10 mile mark at just over 1:23:00. Picked them the pace up on the way back to around 7:30s. Did surprisingly well on the run and could have kept going, but I'm glad I got it done.

AM 6.3 at 8:15 pace before packing up and leaving. This is my highest mileage week ever. Hope to bring the miles down a bit next week and get some good workouts in and then start the taper the next week.

AM woke up to go meet the crew to do the workout but the wind scared me away.  Ended up going to the treadmill which didn't sound fun at all. Did 2.65 warmup and then did 1km on/1km off for 10k. The "ons" were between 6:05-6:20 and the "offs" were between 6:35-6:53. Cooled down for 3.35.  Overall it went okay. I don't feel comfortable running below 6:30s on the treadmill. I feel like I'm going to fall off. I feel like I could have done this workout better outside, but at least I got a pretty solid effort in.

AM Met the crew at Orem soccer fields at 6:30.  Did 9.5 up and then back down.  Did tempo for miles 11-16.75.  Splits were:  5:58, 5:54, 6:07, 5:57, 6:02, 6:00, 6:05 (for .75).  Pretty much avg about 6:00 for the tempo, which I was happy with.  Total was 19 in 2:10:40 (6:53).  Really good run for me.

Woke up, got ready to run from my house, started running for about a minute and turned back and came home.  Right foot is sore.  It's on the inside just below my ankle.  It hurt bad enough that running sounded miserable.  Now (the evening) it is swollen and still sore.

AM 2x3 mile workout with 1 mile rest between. Splits were 6:17, 6:02, 6:13 (6:11 avg) and 6:28, 6:40, 6:35 (6:35 avg). Not a very good workout. I was fine on the first set but then prior to the second I had stomach problems. When I did get going I didn't feel well (dizzy). Route was not entirely flat. On the second set I just tried to keep a decent pace. 

Right foot is giving me some trouble. The part right below the ankle on the inside swells up on me during the day. It's a bit painful when I start running but seems to get a bit better after a few miles.
