| AM Long Run - Grandview loop +Sawmill (hill) and some add on back in the neighborhood to get 3 hours. Super slow, and struggling badly with the heat. Ate 3 gels and a handheld of water. Felt mini-bonks 3 times. Think it got up to 80 deg. Sun ate me up when not in the cover and the trees around the lake. 3 hours - 20.81mi. Long road of 100M training started this week - the formula to success: lots of double long runs, and some stregth and conditioning addressing hip flexors and general leg strength to prepare for a long flat compacted agg. course.

| 8am - Series 5k in Mill Race Park - hung with the guy who's been whooping me for about 2miles. 5:57, 5:49, 6:00 pace for partial (short course). 2nd Place and still struggling with 5k
9am - DINO Trail Race in Brown Co. State Park. 8.62 miles GPS, and about 1000' of elevation gain. Pretty tough course, and I struggled. Coming down one of the big decents I fell pretty hard and landed on shoulder, elbow, face. Other than that, quite an enjoyable race in the woods. 8.62 miles in 1:07:24 for about 8th place.
Feeling tired and very sore. Tough week.
