Hard progression run tonight. Took last night off due to emotional turmoil; the divorce papers arrived in yesterday's mail. Talked to attorney and to Pam today and feel a little better, plus there's light at the end of the tunnel occupationally. They called and asked if I wanted to start Aug. 1, thinking I might be wanting to wait. I said "can't we start a little quicker than that," and she said she thought we could but would check.
Anyway, got out running at a moderate pace, like 9:20-isj, then put the hammer down the last mile and a half, playing one of my silly games -- trying to run a mile and a half in less than 14 minutes so as to finish under an hour. Turned out I ran a mile and a half in 11 and change and finish 6.41 in 57:59. So I won that silly little game.
Ran 133 this month, slightly more than May, less than April. If I'm gonna do 20 weeks for Sacramento, that would start July 18, but I hope I'm starting something else then -- a job. But we'll see how the job and the weather go, and adjust the start of training accordingly. Going to Bryant tomorrow; hope to get in a track workout there to replace the one I skipped last night, plus I'm planning to meet the Crackheads Saturday morning at the Capitol. No Firecracker 5K for me this year. |
