Cooler weather arriving ... I think I can do this!

Even with all my time off there is a little discomfort in my knee, will have to be a gradual buildup

8:37 ... Fast finish ... Alex joined me for a mile before school ... getting that to happen is like pulling teeth ... but one mile is better than none!  He did score a goal in his soccer game yesterday, perhaps that little bit of glory will motivate him to continue to work on his fitness.  I will go to his 2 hour practice tonight ... and hopefuly get in an easy 6 or 7 miles ... I guess I have to wait until Wednesday to find out if I will be running Boston in 7 months!

Evening 5.6 miles - Fowler Park - 7:48, 7:09, 7:47, 8:34, 7:37, cooldown 0,6 miles

Back to Boston in '14. 6 months to prepare to secure a spot in '15, with a BQ-5 ... Or if training goes well, perhaps I will pick a flat marathon in Dec or Jan, to try to get moved up into Wave 1.

For now, just happy to get 3 miles in & be invited back.

8:21, 7:42, 7:24

Went out for a quick 3 before lunch.  First mile was a little faster than expected, then with ,4 to go in second mile I realized I was hovering just under 7 min pace, so decided to establish a 2 mile benchmark ... 13:59 ... next up ... 13:40

7:12, 6:47, 8:11 cooldown
