Ran this morning at Sope Creek preserve on the trails with the Big Peach running store group - the first 4 mile loop was good- felt really good.  The 2nd loop I had an episode and couldn't find my breath AT ALL.  Luckily this didn't happen during the race last week. Oh well, I guess the miles all count.

man it was hot out there this afternoon.  I couldn't run until late tonight so I just went out at work lunch time.  A little concerned about my foot.  I think it was my achilles that was hurting when I started.  I retied my shoes and stretched it for a couple minutes and then it was better.  I'm hoping it was just a leftover from running on the trails yesterday.   

 4.4 7:55 pace

Tonight was the last track night for the year.  I was hoping to improve on the 1500 and 3000 times from two weeks ago.  It wasn't meant to happen.  Today I was feeling great, ran over to the track early, and then waited forever...all those sprinters had to get out of the way...

Two hours later my heat was up.  I think I warmed-up too much or something.  I just didn't have any spark tonight.  Whatever - no excuses but these were my times. 

1500 - 4:50 (5 sec off 2 weeks ago)

3000 - 10:49 (12 sec off 2 weeks ago)

anyway - have a good night all

On vacation in Bowling Green, KY.  Going to the NHRA Hot Rod Hall of Fame Reunion for the drag races and meeting some of the "old timers".  My wife's dad win involved in the sport back in the 60's and 70's so he knows a lot of the people, which is cool .  

I ran after we got here today.  It is nice a flat here. 

4.5 - 7:03 pace

91 degrees and a little humid

Ran at 7AM Bowling Green time before it got too hot and such.  I added some country road to the route I went yesterday.  That part was hilly.  Good run

 I made 50 miles for the week without a long run or any doubles but I made it.

8.3  -- 7:24 pace.
