Whew, a busy, hot trip to Calif. followed by a few long days at work. I was sapped, and got lazy for a few days. So now I'm back. 

Five on the 11th-Shore Drive route, on a sunny, pleasant evening. No watch (because I've misplaced it).

After a disappointing week for running, despite the good weather, I hauled myself up early to hit Beach Drive. I started alone, Mike ran a marathon last weekend and didn't need another long run. Beautiful dawn before 6 a.m. 

Still haven't found the watch, so I was running blank. Started out at what felt comfortable, but the pace was quicker than what I'd call easy, I knew that much. Mike met me at mile 5 and we went out to Manchester (mile 8) together and then back to his truck. We started hitting 7/min miles, so there was almost a workout portion to the run. Felt alright though, other than being a little stiff. After I finished I was really stiff, didn't stretch much this week and I felt it. A lot of time in an office chair as well.

Decent end to the week, but that was one I won't get back and I felt like I dropped the ball with only six weeks before Seattle RnR. The day off Monday hopefully means I can get the miles up next week, and I'll do 18 and then 20 the next two Saturdays.
