Happy Summer Solstice! This is my first week to hit 40+ miles so far this year.  I'm feeling so much stronger than I did earlier in the year (surgery in Decmeber really socked it to me). I'd like to keep this up throughout the summer if my body will accept it.  But man, these 7-9 mile days have made me sleepy. I had a big week: the Riverwoods 10 miler (I came in 6th in my division, by the way), my first lame attempts at 'speed training,' plus pushing that 40 miles this week.  For me, those were some milestones.  The swimming for Ironman was going on down at the lake today, and by the time I was headed back, I was being passed by bikers.  It's going to be a HOT day today.  I'm glad not to be running Ragnar today.  My running is through for this weekend.  Is 9:08 a.m. too early for a nap?
