| | 5:00pm, 3.5 terrible miles around the neighborhood. There was multiple periods of walking, a stop to change from the VFFs to the Merrells, and finally just quitting to pick blackberries. Numerous things were bothering me, including my left ankle, right calf, and left knee (I woke up this morning and my left leg was SO stiff I could barely bend it, so horrible). This is all so weird because I've been feeling pretty good and non-sore and didn't go all-out like last year! So why am I being punished? Hopefully it will be short-lived. Then after a short-snafu did our fantasy football draft, and then hopped on the bike trainer for 45 minutes while I watched Bachelor Pad. That's right, summer TV sucks and I soak it up. |

| | 30 minutes on the bike trainer while watching Curb your Enthusiasm (HBO GO is AWESOME, thank you in-laws for providing us with it unknowingly, haha). Oh yeah, I mowed the lawn for like the 2nd time ever, I was proud. Justin supervised. | |

My knee is better! I guess icing and 9 advil really did the trick. Still not feeling 100% great, some left ankle/shin/calf problems but let's hope its just remnants from H2C. 7am, 3 loops around the neighborhood, after 1.5 did 9 .1 speed-ups with .1 recovery, ending with the 10th one being a .5 (800) speed-up at about 7:30 pace. I was REALLY tired after the end of these, I'm surprised the 5th cool-down mile wasn't in the 11's. TT: 45:15 AP: 9:03 Splits: 10:06, 9:14, 8:22, 8:15, 9:17 PM - 40 minutes on the bike trainer Surprise date for Justin tonight to see Blink 182 (who knew they were still around!) and Chemical Romance tonight at the Auburn Amphitheater!

| | AM - 50 minutes on the bike trainer while watching Project Runway. You know you know nothing about fashion when the outfit you hate gets picked as the winner. |

| | 7am, absolutely lovely run with Lisa and Anya at Roegner, along the river, blue skies, pure loveliness! Wanted to do 14 today but didn't think I'd be feeling it, dare I say I think I'm training for another MARATHON? Am thinking Sacramento, it's a new state, downhill, and promises good weather (unlike Portland last year!) which dominates Seattle as my backup (hello hills). Lets see if I can get Lisa and Anya in on this action...!
