AM - 10 miles. Out and back to Maverick. Feeling much better than Sat. I have no idea what was going on. It must have just been a bad day. 10 X 100M - Felt Great and very fluid.

PM - 4 miles. Did a few extended Dirt miles w/ some looping around the neighborhood.

AM - 14 miles. Kendra and I ran 1 mile together up to the Maverick. Then I went out and did my extended River Rd. Loop. Nice steady pace. High 6's until the end. The humidity started to get to me along with the clumb back up to the house - so I slowed down quite a bit.

PM - 4 miles. Around the hood and down to telagraph and around and back. Slow an Easy!

1 - 5:59 started of nice and relaxed.

2 - 5:52

3 - 5:50

AM - Great run witht the club this morning (25 people). Ended up running most of the way with Mr. Fielding. Kept it at 6:45pace for the first 11. At about mile 9.5 Logan started blowing chunks out of the blue. I felt pretty bad for him and thought he was going to need to stop after his 6th time hacking up a meal from 2 days ago - but the crazy mule just kept running.

At mile 11 we started our 9 mile tempo -Here's how it went down:

1 - 5:42

2 - 5:26

3 - 5:28

4 - 5:58 (winchester hill)

5 - 5:54

6 - 5:35

7 - 5:32

8 - 5:38

9 - 5:37 (5:39 AVG for tempo)

Felt really good this morning. It was nice having Logan there to pull me along - especially on the hills.

AM - 14 miles this morning. Not feeling too zesty, but not sore. Took it slow and easy.  I kept going over my plan for Hobble Creek this weekend. I'm supposed to do another Tempo tomorrow, but I'm thinking about cutting it short or taking it easy.

AM - 7 miles -bike-path loop. 10x100m strides. I'm running pretty tired. I was going to get up and run with the guys this morning. But, I was just beat last night and decided I should probably split my runs up a bit more today.

 PM - 7 miles out and back around the Turf Farm. Still feeling really tired. I'm not sure why I'm feeling so drained this week.

PM - 10 miles with Clyde. I really wanted to cut this short. I think it was 102F when we started, but cooled off after the sun went down.  Thanks Clyde for not letting me be a baby.

AM - Big morning! Met up the the guys at Clyde's for tempo. Here's the splits: 

5:52, 6:01, 5:47, 6:18, 6:01, 5:51

I just didn't feel mentally in the game this morning. I'm not sure what my problem was. Any way the total run was 12.5 miles.

AM#2 - Got home and figured It was still cool out, I was still feeling pretty good - So, I might as well finish up my day right then. So I went out and did a 6.5 mile loop to finish off the morning - EASY.

PM - Went to the 1 hr class at the gym with Kendra - it beat the crap out of me so I'm calling it 4 miles.
