On my own today after and hour of trying to get myself out of bed. The first 4 miles were rough and I was struggling to keep moving. Work is work and just more stress than I want as well as lots going on at home with the kids and Jay's work. Finally about mile 4 I started feeling better. 9:13, 8:53, 8:42, 8:16, 8:37, 8:06, 7:48, Avg Pace 8:31 - Llano Springs, Risenger, Stone Meadow, Wildflower. PM: I have been wanting to add a mid-day run in a couple of times a week but have been pretty bad about following through. Today I accomplished it. I have a view from my office of this hill and I have been watching runners and cyclists on it for a year, so today was the day. It is .5 mile long and a 5% grade. I did 2 out and 2 back from my office which isn't so bad but it is 80 degrees and I am used to running in the dark. Dehydrated, hot and I should have taken it easier. Avg. pace 8:36.

| Very tired and sore legs this morning = very, very slow run. It was 62 degrees and 85% humidity at 5:30 am, I am afraid for summer if this continues. Took it extremely easy and slow. |

| Ran at lunch. I had taken my stuff with me to OKC yesterday, but didn't get chance to run. I realized I forgot socks as I was getting ready, but figured I would give it a go....bad idea. 3 miles in hot, windy weather. |

| I was meeting Annette to run together for the first time. Our girls go to school together and we are pretty similarly match - YAHOO! I ran 2.3 prior to meeting up and then we ran another mile together before hills. She kicked my butt when we ran the the long repeats but I held my own on the sprints - that is a first. We cooled down back to the meeting spot and then another mile home. Hopefully, we will get to run together more. Avg Pace: 8:48

| Nothing really good to say about today other than it is done. I got started late, which meant it was hot. The wind had picked up and I decided to start into the wind. 3.6 into the wind and then turned around and headed back. The wind was brutal..... Stopped by the house for a GU and water and really debated going back out. Foam rolled my hip and headed back out. My heart rate got really high a couple of times and I had walk for a minute during the second half. Hopefully, something good will come out of this sufferfest. Avg Pace 8:46

| 7 miles on the treadmill in Syracuse. I had flown all day, gone to a beat down meeting with a client and then to dinner. I ran too soon after dinner, but it was now or never. Ran 2.66 and then had to have pit stop and then finished up. I watched the movie The Rookie and forgot how much I love that movie.... |

| This week was a marathon week at work - 5 client meetings in 4 different cities, which meant running took a back seat. I am so glad the week is over! Next week is busy and stressful, but nothing like this week. I warmed up one mile on the way to meet Annette at CVS and then we ran 10 together and then another mile back home. We had a really good run and it is nice to run with someone who is similar paced and has the same goals. We took it at an easy pace, but had quite a few hills through out. Avg Pace: 8:51

| I met Annette at her place for some speed work. We warmed up for two miles and then did the following: .2 on/.35 recovery x 2 ( had to make a pit stop - again) .4 on/ .15 recovery x 4 .2 on 1 mile recovery On's were at 7:10 - 7:20 This was the hardest workout I have had for quit sometime. It was great, but I felt it in my hip once I was done. Lot's of stretching & scraping. Avg Pace 8:20

| 6 absolutely great miles in Omaha. I ran into Iowa twice - kind of fun to run in two states during a run. I explored a park that went along the river, across a great bridge and by the College World Series ballpark. I had planned on super easy effort and the effort felt super easy, but I was shocked by my pace - 8:33 for the entire run. The 20 degree temp difference probably helped out a little. |

| Met Annette at 5:30 to run. We started slow and were progressing and then picked up her friend Lori for a few miles and then finished on our own. Not to bad, but my hip was less than happy. Lots of stretching tonight and I scheduled an appointment with a sports med doc. I want to address this as soon as possible and I need to start finding someone here in Texas for when I have issues.
