| Bumped up mileage for easy days from 5.24 to 7.06. Ran 8:41 pace overall with the last two miles at 7:41 and 7:57. Felt pretty relaxed although I had several twinges of pain in my right quad. I can't think of anything I might have done to injure it so it's probably just one of those random aches and pains. | | Add Comment |

| Felt slightly more sluggish today than normal, possibly a result of bumping up yesterday's mileage. | | Add Comment |

| Pretty good day today. Feeling slightly more fatigued that usual, but that might have been due as much to the warmer temperatures (and higher humidity) as to a bump up in mileage. | | Comments(1) |

| The easy miles didn't feel so easy today. I needed to give my brother-in-law a ride to work this morning and he had to be there by 7 so I skipped my morning run, hoping that it would be cloudy when I got home from work. No such luck. It was in the 90's and no shade to be found. After reading an article in Runner's World about heat exhaustion, I decided to take water and not push it too hard. I still got overheated about four miles into the run, but I poured the remaining water over my head and down my back as I ran back by the creek trail. Felt good, but was glad I didn't try to push it any harder in the heat. | | Add Comment |

| Felt a little tired from after yesterday afternoon's run in the heat and from getting to bed so late. I definitely need more than five and a half hours of sleep. I wasn't sore or achy, just a bit sluggish. Ran a good pace the last couple of miles and ran up the hill instead of going straight to the creek trail. | | Add Comment |

| Decided to skip the 17 miler I'd planned for today and ran with my wife, Laureen instead. We ran along the creek trail, around the golf course, in the hills east of Cedar Hills and then along the canal. It was just nice to spend the time together. It reminded me of why I started running in the first place. We got home in time to shower and eat breakfast before the parade. I wish I could work more of these runs in. I realize that I'm going to have to push it farther and harder next Saturday. | | Add Comment |
