One mile to meet the ladies, 3 together and 2.5 back home.    

 

We met 30 min later than usual and it was a little bit cooler than the normal 5 am.   Nice to get out and hopefully this week brings more success than the past few.

Met Saskia and Jenny for some hills.  We warmed up for 2 miles and then did a 1.15 mile climb and then a .5 mile down hill back to the start.  Originally we planned 3, but I ended up backtracking a few times on the up hill portion to check on Jenny so we only had time for 2 and a nice cool down.

Work has been less than kind this week and I have not been getting a lot of sleep.  I ended up taking 2 Dramamine and 2 Advil before I went to bed - Good news - I slept like a rock, Bad news - I was in a fog for most the morning.  

I ran 1 to meet the ladies and then 3.8 with them.  I should have run home, but took a ride instead.  LAZY

Oh another hot morning!  86 degrees!  

2 miles to meet Saskia

6 miles together

2 miles back home

Glad to get 10 under my belt this week but the heat is killing the running.   I was so thirsty the entire time and it just is oppressive.

On my own today and boy are the legs fatigued.   I didn't really have a plan and would have probably liked more miles than what I ended up with but this week has taken it's toll on me and 5 it is.   

I have not gotten nauseated much before now, but this is twice in the last week that I have felt horrible on a run - easy runs.   I am hoping it is the heat and not lack of fitness ( and no, I am not pregnant)
