A.M. - Neighborhoods - 15:22

Pushed Nica in the stroller over to the playground, played for a while, then ran back home. Nice way to start the day.

P.M. - 3 mile wo; 20 minute fartlek; 2 mile wd

Late start (again) at 9:45 p.m. Ran mostly around Fairmont/St. Mark's/Morley Nelson area. Did 3 miles warmup at 7:20/mile pace, then did the standard 20 minute fartlek and a cooldown at about 7:40/mile pace.

2 x 2:00 @ 5:40/mile; recovery 7:16/mile

Canals + neighborhoods - 42:39

Felt a little flat today. Struggled to make it through the run. Did the last five minutes with Leo at a shuffle.

Neighborhoods - 29:50

Did a quick paced run at 11 a.m. before flying to Phoenix. Splits were 7:02, 6:35, 6:23, and 6:10. Made the best of the 30 minutes I had.

A.M. - South Mountain - 59:22

This was a real desert trail run. Ran from the hotel and was on the trails 3 minutes in. A little hot already at 8 a.m., but had a great run. This place goes on for miles. Last 10 minutes around the hotel area at a quicker pace.

P.M. - Legacy Golf Course - 17:21

Emily was putting Nica to bed, and I had nothing to do, so I went for a walk and ended up jogging around the golf course in the dark. You don't get to run on golf courses much after high school and college cross country.

Treadmill - 47:15

Hit the treadmill at the fitness center at the Legacy Resort. Fairy boring, but spiced it up with 6 x 1:00 @ 6:10/mile pace and 6 x 2:00 @ 6:27/mile pace during the run. It hit 113 degrees today, so the treadmill was the sane option.

Run from the Legacy Resort - 41:30

Wasn't able to get out until 1 p.m. and I didn't feel like doing the treadmill, so I ran from the hotel and hit some canal paths I saw earlier. Not optimal running conditions in over 100 degree temps, but I got through it and felt a little tougher for it.

PMI: Treadmill - 42:03

Ran on the treadmill at the fitness center again. Ran steady and did 3 half-mile pickups at 6:25/mile pace the last 15 minutes.

PMII: From the hotel - 20:31

Ran out and back at 9:30 p.m. Made it back in time for a quick dip in the pool before it closed it 10 p.m. Vacation is the best.
