First Gazelle workout in 5 months.  I felt good to be back, but I could feel how much speed I'd lost.  It was a tough workout to come back to...the dreaded 2400 meter test.  I had no particular goals in mind, and I also forgot my watch and ended up in between groups.  As such, I can only guestimate my time...I'd say it was about 9:30, but it could have been slower (and unlikely to have been faster).  After that we did 12 x 200 meters hard, with 100 meter jog as a recovery.  I then went the long way back to RunTex, and then onto the gym, which accounts for the high mileage.

Epic trail run on the Green Belt.  The goal was to get as close to the infamous "hill of life" as possible, and then head back to base.  The good news is that despite a minor fall and two water crossings that were almost up to my chest we made it all the way to/from the Hill of Life.  I then had to add a little extra as I had to go to a pre-designated rendezvous to meet my wife and get a ride home.  

 (As I write this my calves a little stiff, but too bad all things considered).
