| 4.25 easy miles around AHS. While running, I thought a lot about the Black Death which swept Europe in the 1300s.

| 14 miles on the Flying Dog I ran. Early enough for some mountain bike free solitude. High in the aspen groves the trees are entering their fall splendor.

| 14.5 miles up and down City Crek Canyon, a run that any unbiased observer would term "the best urban run in America". I ran with my phone for the first time ever and took a bunch of pictures.

| Weird..
Wasn't sure what I was going to do today. I lifted pretty hard at school when my team was in the weight room. I don't reccomend lifting before a workout but that's how it worked out today. When I got home I went to Liberty Park planning to do a few easy miles and some striders. Then I ran into Taha and a guy named Craig and it turns out they are doing this 3 X 20 minute tempo workout with 5 minute jog recovery. So I joined them early in their 2nd one and ended up running 1 x 15 minutes at 6:20 pace and 1 x 20 minutes at 6:28 pace.
Appreciated the greasy cheeseburger and onion rings from The Habit that Ann had waiting for me when I got home. Need to rest tomorrow.

| Wound my way from home, around SHP, down to LP and around once, and finished at Andy's baseball game.
6 good striders.

| 4.75 mile run plus a hard weight room workout. Lots of rope jumping as well.
Today was generally successful with all of my activities, planned and unplanned, going smoothly.

| PM: Struggled to squeeze in a run. These 55-60 hour work weeks are killing me. Got home from work at 5 and really wanted to get to Andy's baseball game at 5:30 since I will have to miss next weeks game with a meet. So I went to the game up in the Avenues and left a little early to run home in my "street clothes". I did have running shoes at least.
So, 6 miles in long pants.

| Hard 15 mile run on the round valley trails. Finished in 1:59:41. Splits...
8:21, 8:09, 7:56, 8:18, 8:26, 7:45, 8:34, 7:29, 8:45, 7:43, 8:18, 8:10, 7:15, 7:40, 6:52.
I was trying to push the uphills hard and use the downhills to recover. I just carried one bottle of water and felt pretty depleted at the end. A good back-to-back with the hard 13 on the Porter Rockwell yesterday. I'm happy with the effort and how I'm feeling.

| 15 miles at Jeremy Ranch. Averaged 7:45. First half by myself, second half with Jake and Andrea.
I measured my heart rate a couple times durning the run. 125 bpm. Is that meaningful? I've never been a heart rate guy.

| AM: Walked dog around the block. 50 jumping jacks!
PM: Managed 7.25 miles on company time before P-T conferences and XC practice. Beautiful gully run with some hot tubbing after.
Looks like I'm poised to make an appearance on page one of the annual mileage board. A rarity for me.

| AM: 125 push-ups, 125 sit-ups. Planned to run four miles but I ran afoul of the school district bureauocracy and spent a ridiculous amount of time dealing with that.
PM: I drove up to JR after getting home from work and then ran to Morgan County and back (6.5 miles). I got caught in a epic downpour with thunder and lightening and the road got really slippery. It stopped after about 10 minutes. Then I did 7 hard uphills outside the gate (.15 miles each) and jogged back down. Then a short cool down.
