Back home in beautiful and scorching Seattle. Yikes. mid 90s again today before 70s later this week. We got home and our house was 85 degrees inside. It was a less than pleasant night's sleep which made waking up at 5:30am this morning for a run even less exciting. But I pulled myself out of bed and hit the road. It must have been 60 degrees.

Ladder workout today:

1M, 1200, 800, 400, 400 with 2:00 rest between each interval except the 400s.

1M: 4:48 (nice)

1200m: 3:38

800m: 2:25

400m: 70

400m: 69

Still have no footspeed. I'm wonderig how many high school girls at MSHS could beat me in the 400m.

Good workout though.

My new job in Seattle will make it really difficult to run much during the day. So I will be running a ton in the early morning hours. But today was a rare day i was able to walk outside my office and go for a run in downtown Seattle. It was my very first run in Seattle other than a couple of races. I'm down near the water in Pioneer Square so I took the trail along the wharf and headed north toward Magnolia. It was a gorgeous afternoon and running along the water made it easier to pass through a very industrial part of Seattle. I ran up to Discovery Park and back. Coming back was cool because I has the city skyline in view for the last five or so miles.
