Wheeler Farm Loops

AM - 8 miles at Jeremy Ranch w/ Andrea and Roo. Another couple told us they saw a mountain lion up on the hillside... I'm glad the big cat didn't think Andrea or Roo was worth eating, because I didn't want to have to kill it with my bare hands.

AM - 8 miles on the Pipeline trail w/ Andrea.

PM - 6 miles. Last mile faster.

AM - 3 miles w/ Roo.

Bike commute

AM - 4 miles w/ Roo.

PM - 4 miles w/ Andrea. We decided to run a mile hard on the tempo loop for our WOD, and somehow I pulled off a 4:47, in trainers and long shorts. I thought I might be able to break 5, but this surprised me. That's probably the fastest single mile I've run in at least two years. I don't want to jinx myself, but lately I have been feeling a lot better.

Bike commute

PM - 10 miles on the Pipeline trail w/ Andrea to celebrate one year post surgery #2 and six months of running. I've run with her for roughly 97% of her miles during that time span, and its been cool to see her go from almost passing out from heat exhaustion after the first two-miler in Mexico to looking smooth and strong again over the course of the spring/summer.

Bike commute

AM - 4 miles.

PM - 4 miles w/ Andrea.

Watched Abby run at the Murray Invite after work. Warm afternoon for racing, but tough to beat the views on this course...

AM - 12 miles at Jeremy Ranch w/ Rob and his team. Had a good time and got to run with pretty much everyone who was there at one point or another.

PM - 5 miles. Did a faster lap around the horsepark (5:52, not sure I've ever run a horsepark loop fast before) and then up/down Murphy Lane hill at a hard effort.

Whew, biggest mileage day since March!
