Long travel day to San Diego. Missed my flight from LA so had to rent a car and drive the two hours south. After meetings, couldn't run because I had to return the rental car. That's life...

AM: 10 miles around sunny San Diego, although it wasn't all that sunny at 5:30 when I started. You get the idea...more sun here than in Oregon. Ran past Petco Park and zigzagged around downtown before running into Balboa Park. Very fun. I love running in new cities.

PM: 7 miles tonight after a LONG day of meetings. Ran with Jared for the first 3, then solo after that. Ran along the pier and saw the naval carriers which was cool. Again, fantastic weather. I understand why everyone wants to live here.

15 miles around San Diego. I ran 11 miles around Balboa Park (awesome) before returning to the hotel. I tried to link up with a group of other runners at 7 but barely missed them, so I grabbed a banana and then ran 4 more miles around the marina and boardwalk area. Great weather, just like yesterday.

10 miles around Balboa Park. Kind of a mix of runs from yesterday and Tuesday. I ran up 6th street to Balboa Park, then continued north and eventually east across the freeway. Then reached Balboa Park and San Diego Zoo before crossing the freeway again and returning to the hotel. My left leg was worse today than its been all week. I need more sleep, something I'll get once I make it home tonight.

Just wrote an entry and somehow deleted it.  So this one is short and sweet.  Leg hurt after 1 mile and all the recovery from last week seems to have been washed down the drain.  Hopefully I didn't do too much damage and I can recover quickly.  Winner was the 5A state champion in XC from Bend--ran a 15:17 so he smoked me.

Feels like a calf strain but I'm not certain.  Easy running all next week, if I run at all.
