5.50 miles on the country roads around the house.  Normally i have not ran on a Sunday but i got home from Church and just felt the need to go and run. Ran in my new pair of Brooks Adrenaline 11's that i got from the running store last week and man they are nice.

Work has been busy and I am going out of town to Lake Tahoe a week from today to set up a log house that I build and will be there for a couple of weeks and hope to be home before the 4th but we will see. Hope to keep the runs consistent.

20 miles in 2:41ish

I had a very good run today as I was able to run with Jeff this morning for 3 miles as this does not happen to often, and around mile 15.50 I ran into my amazing wife and was able to run with her for the next 4.50 miles as this don't happen much also. So yes, today was a good day.

Now off to get a rental car and get to packing to head out of town for work to Lake Tahoe for a couple of weeks.  Sounds like work will be getting very busy.

AM   7 miles on a combination of a bike path and some hills, it was a good run and nice and cool.  Carson City and Lake Tahoe has alot of hills, may run the bike path around Lake Tahoe this afternoon after work.

PM   4.00 miles, We ended up working late and was tired, was going to run the lake and it was 78* up there and ended up driving down to Carson City. Should have ran the lake, it was 88* in Carson and only ran 4 miles because it was just plain hot after a long day of work.  I like it here as it is so scenic up here.

8 miles and alot of hills in it,  it has been hard to get the runs in here in Tahoe. The morning run is fine but to get in a run after work is the hard part as it is hot, today at the lake it was 86 and in Carson City it was 91 yesterday and the TM in the hotel was even hotter then that. Do what i can right!  The weatherr is nice here don't get me wrong but when I go from cool temps back home to hot temps here it may take a week to get used to it.
