Ann Morrison Park - 32:22
Ran around the park, mostly on the sidewalks and roads, and did 10 - 12 x 30 second pickups to work on a bit of leg speed. Felt pretty good. |

Boise bench - 1:07
Similar run as Saturday night. Canals to Franklin to the Depot to Crescent Rim to Garden to Overland (roughly). Did 5 x 30 second pickups midway through the run and then a 21 minute tempo run toward the end. Didn't have the garmin, but Map My Run says it was about 3.5 miles, so around 6:00/mile pace. Sounds about right. Good run in the dark. Fresh legs help. |

1 mile warmup; 6 miles steady; 1 mile warmdown
Ran to Borah track at 10:15 p.m. Why can't I get an earlier start?....Beautiful, cool night with the track to myself. Just ran free and comfortable, until the last mile, which I pushed a little bit. Progression run of 6:26, 6:18, 6:16, 6:13, 6:06 and 5:56 for a total of 6 miles in 37:16. The miles in the 6:15-6:20 range seem pretty reasonable for marathon pace right now - I just need 4 or 5 long runs to make sure I have the strength to finish it out. |

Hulls Gulch - 1:00
Up the freeway, down the gulch. Tired today. This was the most fatigued I've been in a while.
About 40 minutes in, I came across about 5-10 minutes of the WORST bug swarm I've ever seen. It was thick and relentless, and even with my head looking straight down at the ground I had them in my eyes, nose, mouth, etc. My chest (running shirtless) was a mass of black bugs sticking out an inch. It was horrible. I felt like I was in a horror movie attacked by bugs. |

BK trails + neighborhoods - 1:00
Another day, another run in the dark. Luckily, the lights at the BK baseball stadium were on and I was able to run a half hour on the trails with decent visibility. It was just two guys playing home run derby, so they must have had connections with the school. Finished up in the neighborhoods at a steady pace. |

Treadmill - 31:32
Very tired today. Horrible night of sleep last night with Nica. A nap helped, but not much. Short run tonight.
Crappy week of running. I set up a plan for the next 5 weeks that I can hopefully follow and get back in the groove. |
