Took my girl and another girl scout to Sweetwater creek state park to get their hiking badge.  We had a great 3.5 hour hike.  Nothing too hard, just an easy hike and then played on the river rocks.  The water level is very low...

3 more work-days of being at home.  I went out around 2 for 4 sluggish miles.  hoping to run with the Oakhurst group tonight for 6 more.  This weather is amazing.  

4 @ 7:28  - first 2 were over 7:30 and the last two were around 7:15 or something like that.

kind of a silly goal, but I made it a point to make at least 160 miles this month.  I've only gone over that 3 months this year.  Pretty sad.  I need to get my butt in gear.  Should go over 40 this week if all things go well.  I'm trying to get back to where 40+ is normal.  Will be harder once my job starts but it will be a goal.   

ok 6 with the group - felt harder and not as hard all at the same time - I'll call it a tempo run.  I really didn't feel great the whole time.  These paces shouldn't be that hard.  

6 @ 6:52 ave 7:36, 6:45, 6:51, 6:28, 6:37, 7:03

longest run in a while - met JG for a few to peachtree and around that area.  I need to do these 1.5-2 hr runs EVERY weekend

15.1 @ 7:57 ave (or something like that)  

shouldn't be a problem to go over 160 for the month.  200 needs to be the goal for next month
