Long Run workout: 4x20min. AT with 4 minute recovery jog + 7 x pickups on some rollers

Solid workout this morning.  Out and back down CR 400 - North to South to North.  Kept the AT miles within the range after got the emergency No. 2 done in the first rep, and then lasted until the last mile of the last rep.  Legitmately looking at about 6:40 pace for AT right now.  Humidity and heat are definite factors for me this time of year in Indiana.  Warm and overcast until the last 30 minutes when the sun came out and made things abit more difficult.  

Carried a handheld with the gatorade electrolyte mix, and ate one of the caffenaitted Maurten gels with very little trouble.  

21 miles total - 2:32:06.

AM run around the neighborhood: 5 miles easy - 42:43.  

Lunch time fun: rode bike over to the neighborhood we're watching for houses for sale, and then over Tipton.  5.7 miles.  Hopped off at MArina, an then jogged around Tipton checking out houses there also.  2.7 miles easy.  Yep - we are house hunting, and trying to sell our house.  Easy 3.7 mile ride back home.

AM workout: 7x0.5mi. TH - running around the neighborhood - not the bestof workouts as I struggled with 5:45 pace.  11.3 total - 1:27

PM easy with a Segment half ass attempt.  Didn't even run my fastest time much less grab that crown back.  8.2 miles - 61:46.  Okay - so really this ended up being more of a moderate effort.

Noonish run around the 12.5 mile loop on Pppl Trail.  Saw Tyler, and Christian/Chelsea out doing there thang also.  Pacing around waht I want to target in a 50 mile attempt at some point soon.  8:15 gets me under 7 hours, and feels like a reasonable pace in the humidity of the Indiana summer.
