I feel like I really tried hard to beat the 9:00 AP... not quite there yet.  Oh well. Ran with Frankie this AM. Tomorrow I will do 4 in the AM and 3 after work.

Felt so good I decided to mow the lawn. :) Funny because when I got home from work I felt lethargic and tired. Didnt want to do anything but the run gave me some energy!  

Hamstrings are a little tight... need to stretch!

Very surprising AP, I thought it would be worse! I walked so much and felt terrible!   Lucky to get 8 miles I think.  It was so hot and windy.  Took frank for the 6 mile loop then dropped him off and picked up Cash for another 2.  Later had a WTPP! And enjoyed some cold brew in the kiddy pool. :-) AHHH Summer.. HTC is 2 short weeks away! Hopefully it cools down before then.

Embarrassing how the splits start off good and then get horrible!
