| | Cooler out these days, but still a pleasant morning temp. Five on 11th-Shore Drive, pretty quiet out there today, and I just cruised along and enjoyed it. Just trying to get a good rhythm for the next few weeks and pile up some miles. 36:33 This Sunday there's a Roots Rock Trails run that I'm planning on, and another 5k at the end of the month. That's the coming race schedule, then I'll start making more firm plans for a shot at a fast half and maybe full marathon. supernova glide -- 341

| | Another cool and overcast morning, I left a little late after chatting with my neighbor (who gets up eaaaarly) and trying to track down a loose dog running around my street. Eventually, I let him run off. I think he'll be ok, I've seen this guy walking around on his own before. Ran out to Lions Park, did a loop and came back on Lebo/Wheaton/11th, it's about six with a few hills. Felt good, pretty even pace. Stretched more than I did yesterday. 42:18

| | Five-spot on 11th-Shore Drive after a very, very long day. But the sun was back out and called me off the porch, I was glad to answer. Planning to plod along slowly, I actually picked it up (probably all the other runners out there pushed me -- I'm prideful like that) and ended up running near 7/min miles. But I didn't feel like I was pushing, which is nice. Good week coming together here, and warmth is on the way back. 35:00 supernova glide -- 353

An alarm clock snafu made me late down to Slug Club this morning, but I caught up with Henry and still got 8.5 in on Beach Drive. The first mile took a bit to get my legs in rhythm (7:30), but after that I loosened up and we did a nice pace (one at 7:03, but most between 7:10 and 7:30). Good crowd today, it had been awhile since we'd all met up. 1:00:03 I haven't had any post-marathon blahs, as sometimes happens. In fact, I've been more encouraged and upbeat the past week than usual in training. Not that I've done anything major, but I have a good outlook on the next month and I'm excited to get to work again. Racing tomorrow up in Port Gamble on the trails, should be a good day for it. supernova glide -- 361
