AM Long run on Mill Race course.  26.3 miles in 3:36:27.   Pushed it in the last 10k after the airport section.  Added some miles with some missed turns and improv to get the mileage.  1.5 handheld water bottles not enough.  With an older one leaking, most of its content sloshed out through the damaged nozzle.  Refill at the fire station, Donner PArk, and from a nice stranger.  

Walked the 1 mile left to make the 100 mile week!  First legit Hundo of the year (mostly running, and with workout, a race, and a Long run)

AM track workout.  Started day with coffee and banana beforea trip tot Seymour and Trinity track.  One of my new favorite places for workouts.  Nobody is ever there.  6am start and off I went once out of the car.  2 laps around, and number 2 hit me again.  took car of business, and started the workout:

2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 1200, 4x400m at LT, with 200m recovery jogs.  Pretty slow and working hard aerobically.  Kept just under 6 minute pace, but struggled.  

Lunch run - easy 40 minutes at Muskatatuck on the gravle road.  Hot!  Tired... 

walks at work also.  This 100 is going to be tough this week.
