Noon run, sunny, temp. 82'

The legs felt recovered but yesterday and today I've had to make too many trips to the potty.  I figured I'd be ok for a run because there is an outhouse every two mile on my route and because I didn't think there was anything left to worry about.  My stomach felt funny the first 5 miles then it actually started feeling better the last half. 

Nice to have the temperature down some from last week even though it is still to warm.

Noon run, sunny, windy, temp. 90'

I'm hoping that was the last 90' run for the year.  I could feel the tendon-bum-itis acting up a bit. I guess it didn't like the strides yesterday.

I ran 250 miles this month which is the most miles I've ever run in a month. I ran the final 250th mile in sub 7 in honor of the high mileage.  Hope the injuries will stay away.  It seems like I have a few past injuries that are always just waiting to flare up.

I was feeling a little out of gas but decided to do miles 3&4 fast.  I did them in 6:12 avg.  It was hard and I thought I'd pretty much die out and run some really easy miles after, however, after running hard the easy running doesn't seem so bad and I actually felt ok and made better time than I thought I would the last 6 miles.

I felt like I've over done it a little this week so I took it nice and easy.  I'd much rather run at a faster pace.  I feel like I'm wasting my time, but hopefully it was a wise decision.

Early Morning run, temp 55'

Nice temperature for the run by It was all in the dark with a headlamp except for the last 2 miles.  When I could finally see without the headlamp I decided to pick the pace up and push it in harder.  I still felt just a touch run down.  Maybe waking up at 4:30am doesn't help.
