Boise Bench + Federal Way canal banks - 1:38

Tough run on an overcast, but pleasant fall day. Drank way too much coffee this morning and didn't fuel up enough or hydrate sufficiently before or during the run. Started off with 12 minutes easy with Leo, then headed down toward Federal Way and did about 3 miles on the canals there. The last few miles were tough as I was hungry and getting lightheaded, but I made it home.

A.M. - 20 minutes weights, core and stretching

P.M. - No run. Intended to get one in, but didn't. That's ok, I did 40 miles in the last 4 days, which is a lot for me right now. And I'll run twice tomorrow.

A.M. - Borah track - 37:34

Felt downright frisky for 5:50 a.m. Usually morning runs are a stumble at 9 - 10 min mile pace. But today I averaged about 7:30s, which was good. Chilly and windy but still enjoyed getting out.

P.M. - Canal banks - 35:52

Just a basic run on the canals and into the neighborhoods after voting and before class. Felt pretty good.

A.M. - Neighborhoods - 22:14

Not much sleep last night, but still managed to get out for a couple and feel ok doing it.

P.M. - Treadmill - 43:02

Ran at Gold's after parent teacher conferences. Just a standard 12 hour day. I did 7 x 2:00 on/2:00 off at 5:36 pace, which felt pretty easy. Hopefully will get a few more of these 5k pace workouts in outside next week before it gets too cold.

Got in a quick run with Conrad before p/t conferences night #2. Felt a little tired but pretty good all things considered.

2.5 mile wo, 4 x 1 mile LT, 2.5 mile wd

Took the canals to Cassia Park and did 2 x 1 mile on the path there, then one mile on the roads and the last one at Borah track. I took about 2:00 jogs (.25 miles) for recoveries. The times were 5:58, 5:52, 5:56, 5:49. Felt a little better than last week when I did a similar workout, so that's a good sign.

Ran at 8 a.m. Did the first 11 minutes with Leo at a shuffle, then the rest solo at about 7:30 pace. Felt pretty good once I warmed up.

Quick pace right at twilight. Ran in some old familar places around the high school, Smith's, Candycane Park, etc. Felt good.
