I can do it. I will do it NINE times!

Did a slow, easy 78 minutes around SG at around 8:30. The heat, again, killed me dead. I ran with tunes for the first time in a while, which was a nice distraction from the death/hotness. (K3 121.7)

Great run this morning, back up in Logan. The weather is oh-so-nice. It was like 9:30 and I was just enjoying the coolness. :) Ran up Green Canyon a ways, then headed home. (K3 130.7)

Lots of running today! Got up to go run and felt exceedingly horrible, so I waited around until I felt better... didn't happen. So I just dragged myself out on a slow, horrid 5 miles.

After work, I felt lots better, so once it cooled off a bit, I headed up on the River trail and did my speed/push workout for the week - it felt pretty good, though the 10:00 section up the trail was a toughy. Total, did 6:00 wu, 3x10:00 at 60, 4x1:00 at 15, then cooled down for 10:00. Rec between pushes was 2:00 w/j. Overall, a hard, but excellent run. (K3 144)

70 minutes with Kim early early this morning. Felt pretty fatigued after the heavy mileage and effort of yesterday. (K3 153)

Six easy with Vanessa this morning, again felt super tired out. Hopefully tomorrow on the long run I'll feel like I have legs again! (K3 159)

I have not run this far in almost a whole year! It was pretty great. I ran via canal trail up the canyon for an hour, took some gu, then turned around and came home, barely in time for fireworks! I rolled my left ankle quite a few times, but it is doing ok now. The biggest problem was the twilight/darkness that descended upon me as I ran on the trail and the canal. I felt as though I would trip and fall any moment! But I survived! My left foot issue from last fall is still being buggy, hopefully I won't kill it too much in my travels and runs these next few weeks. (K3 173.5)

This week was mostly satisfactory - ran 60 miles, worked 35 hours and got all packed and ready to go to Europe on Monday! Next week, and the next 3 after that my goal will be to maintain and run as much as is possible with all the travel, I am hoping no less than 40 mpw. I will for sure run on Monday morning, then I'll be en-route to Germany until Tuesday afternoon, so I might get a run in that night, unless I am dead. After that I'll hopefully get in some sort of schedule of morning running.
