4 miles.  Eli rode with me for the first 2.5 miles, and then we stopped at the park to meet everyone else there.  We played some tag there for a while, and then Eli ran the rest of the 1.5 miles with me while Caleb rode his bike home.  Eli did a good job with my pace.  While I don't think I was particularly fast, I was probably still between 8:30 and 9 pace.

I guess I have to celebrate little victories. This was treadmill, and that's always hard for me to be on mentally. I won't say I was exactly on, but i did power through. Various ladders with speed always helps me.

At about 2.5 miles, it started sprinkling. I was planning on 4, and thought that if it just stayed like that, I'd be good. Then 2 minutes later, it started pouring. I stopped at our cousins to maybe wait it out, then realized that it was not going to stop. So Chuck picked me up. Could I have run 1 mile on the treadmill? Yes, but my shoes were soaked. Then when I went out to get the boys from practice less than an hour later, it was back to a manageable drizzle.

In Wisconsin. This was probably more than 4, but not more than 4.2. I don't have my watch, but I did drive the route later in the evening.

In Wisconsin still. Planned on 4, then decided while I was out to make up for the missed mile on Thursday. Overall a strong run. Uphill in the last mile made me doubt myself, but I powered through.
