To the track and back pusing Nora (Emily ran with Nica on the bike), then did a few laps solo and paced Emily to a mile in 7:54. Also did 4 x 50 sprints, pushups and core work while at the track. Great sunny afternoon.

Nice trail run from a friend's house. Hills were a bit tough, but it was a warm, sunny evening out and I enjoyed being out there.

Pretty easy running with 5 x 100 strides and 8 x bleacher sprints at the Bishop Kelly track. Nice afternoon outside. Didn't feel like running, but felt like getting a good sweat in.

Jogged easy 20 minutes on the treadmill at the cabin, then did 10 minutes circuit around the property. That last 10 minutes hurt.

Pushed Nora in the stroller for a bit, then did 2 x 800m at tempo pace (3:06) with a minute rest. Just easing into things a bit; don't want to get injured.
