We skipped Spring this year--went straight to 85 degree summer!  I ran at 8 am when it was still only 60 and I was super parched.  At least there is still snow in the mountains which we can hope will keep Colorado from burning up this summer.  Last year we had record drought which led to record forest fires and Boulder was in a haze of smoke half the summer.

Kelsie has had three days in a row now of sleeping from 8:30 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. which is a nice schedule compared to her previous consistent 2 a.m. wakings.  Yay!  So this morning after feeding her I got in a 6 a.m. run.  Saw a blue jay teasing a squirrel in the same neighborhood where I saw them before.  I wonder if they are actually friends?

Met Cindy for a track workout 

2X800 in 2:57, 2:46 

4X400 in 79, 80, 77, 77

2X200 in 36

I am finally feeling some speed slowly awakening in my legs.  Not necessarily pep, but slow, steady "speed." Relative to the pokey slowness I've been experiencing as of late, anyway. 

Cindy didn't feel too hot because that was her first track workout in a while but I actually felt a bit of a "breakthrough" today now that I have a few track workouts under my belt.

Morning trail run with some friends plus a hike with a different friend. Now we're off to the pool with the kids.  Saturdays!
