out after school open house meet and greets - felt pretty good I guess.  I'm really having trouble getting into my training mentally.

now after I've cooled down, my left foot is feeling weird again  - not sure what's up with that.

4 at 3PM - 7:33 ave pace 

6 at  7PM - ran with the Oakhurst running group.  Hung behind the fastest but caught a few on some of the hills.  Ave pace was only 7:14 but those hills were killer.  Found out some do a Sat morning run and some track work in the mornings.  Would like to connect up with some of these runs just for a little motivation.

After the rainout last night, I was determined to get two in today.  They were nothing spectacular in the heat, but my legs feel good. 

11:30A - 4 @ 7:11 ave pace -  last at 6:51

3:30P - 4.1 @ 7:27 ave pace - some nice long hills 

 

Enjoyed the women's 10K today.  PRs for all 3 Americans.  Can't wait to see the men's tomorrow and the women's marathon EARLY on Sunday!

left the house at 7:45AM - just wandered around town.  Ran downtown and touched 3 of the big slyscrapers just for fun.  Felt good - my gps said it was only 11.something, but it got stopped at some point.  So on mapmyrun it came out to 12.3.  

12.3 at mid to high 7 ave pace 

4 decent weeks in  row -- just need to keep the momentum going 

also having fun building a raised playhouse for my kids -
