A.M. - Canals + Borah track - 21:20

Early morning shakeout run. First run in 3 days. Feeling stiff and sore, but nice to get out and run.

20 minutes circuits/weights

P.M. - Polecat Gulch trail - 52:04

Ran on a new Ridge to Rivers trail with Mat. It's a pretty sweet trail with a lot of ups and downs and nice views. It is a bit of a drive to get to, but other than that, it is a fun one. Achilles really sore and I was really dehydrated (103 today).

Military Reserve - 36+

Ran with Mat at about 9 a.m. We kept it relatively flat, but were both struggling a bit more than we should have for a 5 mile run. Getting hot already at 9 a.m. - will have to go earlier.

Noon: Canal banks + Bk Track - 37+

Ran down to the BK track, stretched and did 1 set of easy speed drills. Then ran an easy 2 miles on the track with 8x100m pickups at about 5k effort. Ran back home. Really warm and humid out (I could have run earlier...but I didn't)

Weights, core and stretching: 20 minutes

P.M. Greenbelt - 35+

Steady mileage around 7 - 7:10 pace. Still pretty warm but better than earlier. Achilles hurting pretty good.

Run to gym + treadmill - 46:27

Ran about 20 minutes outside and the rest on the treadmill. Easy to moderate pace. Super hot again today, but I could run earlier I guess, if I really wanted to. Achilles sore, but used some old heel inserts from last time it really flared up and that seemed to help a bit.

Noon: Canals + BK track - 30:02

Ran an easy 10 minutes to the track, stretched and did one set of drills. Then did 6 laps with 6 x 125m strides at 5k effort. Ran home and did 20 minutes of weights and core. Hot and sweaty.

P.M. - Greenbelt -43:05

Had a nice run on the dirt stretch past Park Center. Ran steady wtih Mat. Timed a mile at just under 7:00, which felt pretty comfortable. Quite a bit cooler by 8 p.m. (hit about 102 today, I think).

Castle Rock loop - 41:03

From Municipal Park at 9 a.m. with Mat. Already getting hot. Started out easy, but we were moving farily well by the middle of the run. Happy 4th of July!
