| 79F, 79%. 7:44 AP. Felt ok, given the warmth this morning and the 4 IPAs last night. Hung out with the 8-minute guy for awhile, then dropped him... punk.
Next Sunday....13 miles! Really going out on a limb with my training.

| AM: 79F, 79%. 6 @ 8:28 AP.
PM: 4 on the TM, with some pitiful 1 min on/offs @ HMP. Due for a workout, but have been running kinda cruddy the last week to 10 days. Will probably do something conservative, bide my time until cooler weather and keep the mileage up.

| AM1: 78F, 68%. 10 mi total. A tad warm, but DP was very reasonable, about 67. I knew I wouldn't be setting any world records today though; just haven't been feeling it lately. However, it was time for a workout, so I went to the track for a 5 x 1600, 1 lap active rec. No expectations of pace, just get in the effort. I averaged 6:16 (6:16, 6:16, 6:13, 6:22 whoops, 6:14). Recovery laps were a bit quicker than usual, around 2:00 avg. Physiologically, it did the trick, got the lactic acid bubbling. Normally I'd consider a cutback week after a bunch of dumpy-feeling runs, but this little skid has coincided with a heat wave so I'm not completely sure it's my fault. In fact let's blame it on the heat for now. Yes, everything is just fine.
AM2: back at it, 4 hrs later. 4 on the mill with strides.

| AM: 76F, 69%. 8 @ 7:45 AP. Happiness is a clean, fresh buttsweat towel waiting for you in your car when you get done running.
PM: 4 TM miles with 5 or 6 x 1-minute efforts @ 5k pace.

| AM: went with the TM for this workout. 4 x (4 x 90s on / 60s off). On's were 10.2/10.4/10.6/10.8 mph for the 4 sets (last individual rep @ 11.0) and off's were @ 6.7. So kinda like 16 x 400 @ 5k pace, but I took 2 minutes easy between each set of 4. Worked out to about 4.2 miles of "on's" at a 5:42 avg. Not that hard, but gave the legs some good turnover. All in all, 8.3 miles in 58:xx min. Hopefully I don't have too many more TM workouts to suffer through. In the forecast, I see some lows of 74 in about a week which would be nice.
PM: TM warrior today....4 more.
