| Ten-miler today starting at noon. I left when Cindy got to 15 at NYC. I figured she'd finish before me. I was wrong. After a 10:30 first mile, I cranked it up pretty good and the last mile was essentially at MP. Not sure I could have picked a hillier course. Burnham to Free Ferry to Old Greenwood to Phoenix to Leigh to Cliff and back past Hardscrabble. Run that a few times I'll definitely be ready for Newton and HBH. Of course I've run this route before but not in a long time, and I don't think I pushed it this hard when I did.
Wound up with 57 for the week. I need to sustain that kind of mileage and build on it in the next five months to get where I want to be.
Cindy got her BQ anyway, despite a big fade. So pressure's on me now to get there for 2015.

| Six miles easy on the Country Club/SHS loop, then did hill sprints on Burnham. For as long as its been since I've done sprints, they seemed to go well. I felt like there was some power there. Legs were OK, not too tight after a 26-mile weekend.

| Progression run in the rain. Nobody else showed up for the 5:15 run, so I did it solo. Went pretty well actually, got down to 8:34 at the end.

| A tempo run that actually went as planned. It was 32 degrees out there, and I'm in shorts hauling butt while everyone else is bundled. Glad to see so many people out in it even bundled though. I did the first 7 hard and then jogged 3. The jog is where the legs got tired. Best tempo run in a long long time though. This lends further credence to my idea that the summer heat just screws me up. I can't run properly when it's hot or even warm.

| Recovery Gallowalk with Kathy, David, Rose, Randy B, Daniel and Tracey. Somehow we kept getting faster and faster; wound up with 10:03 average even with walks. Weather was nice, almost too warm.

| Dawn run with Tiffany. She was having trouble with a sttch in her side and cut it short at 5.25. I kept going, across 540 and down the east side and wound up with 10.15. My left hammy started bothering me at about 7.5. Started walking for about 100 yards, resumed running. It didn't go away but it didn't get any worse and I could push the pace without aggravating it. Then the inside of the left knee started hurting, about the same as in Alaska only not as severe. Pushed through that too. Most of the run, except for the run-walk with Tiff's stitch, was at sub-9. Averaged under 9:30 anyway. And got over 1800 for the year.
