Treadmill at Golds -- 36:09

Most of it at a very easy pace, but picked it up to 6:20 pace for 2 miles to make the run go by quicker. Achilles a little sore; need to be better about icing and stretching.

A.M. Treadmill at gym -- 55:35

Ran at easy 7 miles at 5:15 a.m. Had to be up early anyway, so I decided I might as well get a run in. Kept the pace really easy.

 P.M. Military Reserve -- 45:38

Started at the zoo and was able to do about 25 minutes on the trails. Feel a little fatigued, mainly due to the lack of good sleep the past week.

4.5 mile wo, 4 x 1600 @ LT pace, 2 mile wd

Ran 3.5 really easy miles with Emily and Leo, then a mile to the BK track. Then did 4 x 1600 @ 5:50, 5:47, 5:45, 5:36 with a 200 meter jog in 1:15

Felt pretty easy aerobically, but form was not smooth. Typical 1st workout after a long time off. Other than some easy fartleks and pickups during some easy runs, this was the first formal workout since before the NYC Marathon last month.

60 miles this week. Will shoot for 65-68 next week.
