Tecolote Canyon Trails - 46:50

Nice afternoon run from the hotel onto some trails I saw on Google Maps. I guess they go on for a lot longer, but today, this was good enough. Nice to be on some soft surfaces. Also did 5 x 10-12 second hard hill sprints at Presidio Park earlier with the family.

Mission Bay Path - 39:42

Last run in San Diego. Got out at 7:30 a.m. and it was nice and cool. Did a progression run of 7:58, 7:24, 7:08, 6:50 and 6:15 before a short cool down. Great morning run. Feel like my fitness took a big jump in 5 days - hope I can keep it up back in Boise.

Elliptical + treadmill - 31:30

Did 14 minutes on the elliptical and 17 minutes on the treadmill at Axiom. Finished with 5 x 30 second pickups at 5:40/mile pace, which felt pretty easy. Didn't have a lot of energy or enthusiasm tonight.

Englefield Greens - 41:29

Progression run down the canal to Englefield Greens, where I did several laps. Miles of 7:49, 7;13, 6:44, 6:32 and 6:21, then a jog home. The last mile did get a little bit tough. Good workout - feeling the strength coming along.
