AN exhausting day at the lake yesterday. 100 degrees and lost my hat early in the morning, when it blew off - managed to not get sun burned - found some 110 SPF. Somehow, Tiff still got burned - even applying and reapplying 110.
Easy jog in the evening with the dog. 2mi. - prolly about 10 min. miles. IT was starting to lighning and thunder |

| PM run: Thankfully, it is cooler today - mid 80s. 12 mi. buildup - out to Harrison Lake and back. I felt exhausted before starting this run, so I'm happy that I made it out the door. About 8:30-9min. miles for first half and then steadily increased pace up through 11. Last mile -cooldown. |

"The Melt Down" (3x5k's) (9.32 Miles) 00:55:01, Place overall: 3, Place in age division: 1 | | Easy Miles | Marathon Pace Miles | Threshold Miles | VO2 Max Miles | Total Distance | | 6.00 | 0.00 | 9.32 | 0.00 | 15.32 |
| The Meltdown Race - This was fun! Morning races with three 5ks in Shelbyville, IN. Fortunately, the weather was very good - it really cooled off from the 90s-100s its been all week. In race 3 it actually started drizzling a little bit, so no real melt downs here :)
3x5k's: 8a, 9a,10a I actually forgot my watch today :( 1 mile WU jog, 8a: First one went fairly well - A bunch of the younger guys went out too fast on the fisrt mile as usual, and slowly started coming back. Until that started, though, I was running about 10th. A couple guys never faded, and were first and second places in all 3 races. I managed 3rd place in the first of the the three, finishing in 18:23. This time has become my standard plateau, it seems, and will not improve until I do actually take more time off from racing. 2mi. jog in between to keep the legs loose and the blood flowing, 9a: Second race, was very similar, but another guy stepped it up and actually ran faster than he did the first race, and stole 3rd from me. I ran a decent 18:3? and finished 4th. 1mi. jog, 10a: Race three I was really feeling it in the legs at about mile 1.5. I managed barely over 19:00 and placed 5th. 2 mi. CD jog
