Great morning 8 mile run through a rocky and hilly trail through the woods.  Great fun!  The weather was nice too.

Treadmill run. Change the speed and incline several times throughout the workout.

Trail run.  Was hot outside.  Completed the first mile in about 15min, energy went down after that.

Ran two miles on a trail.  Weather was cooler today.  Got home and decided I wanted to run some more so I ran a mile around the neighborhood in 12min, that is fast for me. Flat pavement seemed effortless after running on hilly trail through the woods.

A tough trail run through a stat forest.  Hills were a struggle for me, walked up those. Had my first trailing running wipe going down a heal, just scraped up my hand a little.  Energy levels went down after mile three.  Haven't quite found my food for breakfast before a early run. Anything with protein causes severe stomach pain.  Just plain carbs, don't last.  Found out during a 5k race oatmeal is bad.

Went on a 3 mile trail run.  It is hot and humid outside, quickly wore me out.  Got back to my car eager to down my water, to find that I had not closed the lid down all the way on my water bottle and all the water leaked into my car seat.

Ran through a trail as fast as I could. Trail was 1.35 miles and I ran it in 17 min. Got up the hills better this time.  Was hot outside.  Despite the heat it was a blast and beautiful.  Saw some rabbits, squirrels, butterflies, and at the very end I saw a flock of turkeys.  I love nature even though I ran through a spider web.

Had a fun 9 mile run through a forest.  It was a beautiful cool morning. Feel like I still haven't conquered the hills but I did better this morning.
