5 am, 92 degrees and the humidity was back :(

I ran to the track and met up with Blake. 

5 x 1600 m with 800 m recovery jog. 

I did my first 4 all sub 6, averaging 5:56 and then my legs tied up on me during the last half of the fifth one and I ran a 6:10. 

Then I ran home nice and easy for a total of 12 miles. 

10 nice and slow on the trails

1 mile warm up

9 miles at 6:30 pace

1 mile cool down 

I was surprised how good I felt all the way through the run. I was expecting to hurt at the end but I was feeling good enough to crank it up to a 6:20 mile on the 9th mile of the fast part of the run. 

Dang it!  My right calf tightened up on me a few miles into a nice slow run this morning. Looks like I will be forced into some recovery time over the next week. Hopefully I'll then be able to get in a few quality runs before I need to move into tapering. I'm only 3 weeks and 2 days out from race day.

6 miles. 3 of them were walking though. 

 Calf is still sore today even walking. 

2 hours on the stationary bike. 

30 minutes stationary bike
