It's just that simple

Run to Gold's and back - NT

Jogged easy down to Golds, played hoops for an hour to an hour and a half, and shuffled home. Man is this going to make me sore. But it was fun and worth it (I hope).

PMI: Biked to South and back (6.5 miles)

PMII: Canal Banks + Neighborhoods - 32:07

Took a break from my portfolio project and did a quick run at 9 p.m. This one was rough. I tried doing a few 3-4 minute quick pickups, and what I felt like was 5:30/mile pace ended up being an average of 6:13/mile pace. After the second one, I called it an evening and slogged a mile back home.

I think I will be just on maintainance running mode until: my portfolio presentation is successfully completed and approved (Thursday), my class ends (July 9th) and Nica starts feeling better (hopefully soon). Until then, 30-35 mpw might just have to do.

Field in Donnelly - 23:08

Class until noon, portfolio presentation in the afternoon, then drove to Donnelly. After we settled in, I did a short run in the field (cow pasture) across the road. At twilight, the colors and scenery were great, but the cows didn't do a very good job of making good trails this year, so I was basically on my own. This made for a rutted run, and a little tough on my achilles, but very worth it.

A.M. - Hiked a couple of hours to Goose Creek Falls and back. Carried Nica in the pack so I got a little more of a workout.

PM. - Roads in Donnelly - 26:49

Ran at a steady pace around the new subdivision and on the new bike path. Pretty good run.

Walked about an hour around the forest service roads and trails at Tamarack. That place is a ghost town.
