Canal banks - 37:20

Moderate/easy pace with 5 x 30 second pickups the last 2 miles. Not much sleep last night so I wasn't sharp at all, and it was pretty hot out too.

Run to pick up my car - 32:04

Started the run at 10 p.m. in the dark. Ran super, super easy the first 2 miles then picked it up a bit and did a few strides during the last mile.

Run to St. Al's - 28:04

Had to pick up my car at St. Al's. Did some short, quick pickups (10-15 seconds each) every 2 minutes to mix things up. Rainy out this evening, but really nice to be outside.

Borah track - 28:58

Ran down to the track and did 4 x 200 strides (40, 40, 38, 37) and a steady 800m (2:47) at 10k effort. Nice evening out again. The weather, while not hot for June standards, has been nicer than it's been all spring.

Really slow pace. Tried to just get out and cover a few miles. Need some sleep in a serious way.

Valley Hi loop - NT

Did some walking earlier in the day and about 4 hours of outdoor work - mowing, weeding, digging, watering, etc. I was fatigued and didn't feel like running. Most of my days are spent at a desk, so 4 hours of manual labor is out of the norm. But it was a beautiful evening so I just jogged the basic Valley Hi loop and called it good.
