I ran some easy miles through the Orem/Lindon hills with Wayne this morning. Larry said he was coming but we didn't see him until after the run. He said he woke up early, went back to bed, then apparently slept through turning off the alarm.

Wayne and I only averaged about a 9:15 pace. Larry can stop worrying about him slowing us down.

I ran solo at noon today from my house. I only went 4 miles, but managed to average under 8:00/mi (7:58/mi) for the first time in a while.

My left Achilles is still bothering me a little...no better, no worse. I keep forgetting to treat it regularly because it only starts bothering me a few miles into a run and doesn't bother me after. I guess when it matters enough I'll do something about it. Running hasn't been much of a priority for me recently...and that's okay.

Ran with Larry and Wayne this morning. That hasn't been happening as regularly as normal recently. It's always good when the three of us get out together.
