| Good training day:
3x2mi. HMP: Stuck in there around 6:00-6:05. Did it all on the track at Central, so that's kinda cheating, but, hey, oh well.
Afternoon walk with damfamily'
Evening run - loop around Grandview. I really love this place. Serious consideration going on for buying a house in this place... Arbor can suck it :)

| Easy 7 in the morning: raining at the end and 50 degrees. About an hour of running loops around the neighborhood, rocking the arm sleeves, headband, etc. So - Kipchoge lost??
We got cable TV back just in time to watch a whole lot of football :)

| Mileage volume has been pretty pathetic. Running hard in track workouts, but, not really getting the base volume to back it up.
