Ran the new Ottoville loop (5.5), but wanted more miles, so when I got back to Lion's Park, I ran to the McDonalds road and back home to make it 7 total. It was pretty warm out today and sunny. My head still hurts from getting beaned with tree branch yesterday, but I'll survive! (Adrenaline 311.1)

I got my Garmin charger in the mail today! Hooray!

Up early and got rained on again. Ran out and back along the ocean toward the harbor and back, nothing really exciting at all. Except I ran with my Garmin for the first time in a while! It was funny, I'm already not that used to wearing it, so I kept looking at it on the run. Avg. 7:48/mi. I feel so slow! I think I'm going to start up two-a-days this week, so I'm hoping to get in 3-4 miles in the afternoon or evening. (DS3 304)

Later, I ran a little loop around Tafuna then did a bit of extending to get it to 3.5 miles. Got chased by dogs, raced random kids and ran faster than I have in a bit. It was fun! Avg. 7:28/mi. (DS3 307.5)

This little abandoned puppy that we took home on Friday died today and I had to bury him. It was really sad.

So slow and so dead. Got sprinkled with rain the whole time, but not poured on, so that was rather nice. Tried extending the Ottoville loop by going past the airport, but it didn't make it much longer, so I had to do the little out-and-back through Nu'uuli to get it to 7. My legs feel pretty crappy and I need to eat better! Two 6-dollar burgers at Carls Jr. in two days is not good for running that's for sure. Hopefully I'll feel a bit better tomorrow. Avg. 8:21/mi. (Adrenaline 318.1)

My hamstrings are not happy with me and I don't know why! So, todays run was blah again. Ran the Adventist out-and-back and stopped to run an errand at KS Mart on the way. It's been almost 3 weeks since I've run with anybody. I'm kind of getting used to it, but it still is hard when I really feel crappy (like today and yesterday). I'm planning on 4 more miles this evening. (DS3 313)

I hurried and got 4.5 miles in this evening on our way to snorkeling at IBM beach. The sun was setting fast, so I actually had a good reason to run faster than normal! It was fun, especially since I was racing my sister in her car (kind of...). Avg. 7:20/mi. I like running in the evening here, it's just harder to manage that the morning stuff. (Adrenaline 322.6)

Backwards Airport loop this morning. After the first four miles or so, I started feeling way sick, so the last half around all the blowholes and beaches and at the end on the garbage walk, it wasn't the most enjoyable. And there were tons of spiderwebs hitting me all over, eeew! I did find a couple really cool shells at the beaches, though, and am glad I didn't die or drown in high tide! Or something. (DS3 320)

Because coconut husking is so hard, I think that the 5 coconuts I husked today should count for something.... I know! PiƱa Coladas!!!!! Yay!

This run killed me! I haven't run 10 miles in ages and I am not in very good shape apparently. Ran the Big loop with the CJ extension. It felt mostly good until mile 7 or so when I started getting a sideache and heavier legs. Thank goodness the first half has most of the uphill and the last half has more downhill or I would've died! Stopped at a convenience store for a potty break at one point and used green toilet paper for the first time in my life... awkward! Glad I did it early this morning so now I'm done for the week. Avg. 8:08/mi (Adrenaline 332.6)
