| Warm. Humid. Summer is here in Arkansas. 10 Miles in just under 68 minutes, or 6:48/mile. Good effort. Is 10 Miles the perfect distance? I'm having trouble coming up with a better number. Everyone enjoy the long weekend. Best, Wesley |

Great weekend with the family at my parents' home near Hot Springs, Arkansas. Though initially planning to take the day off, I got restless, and I decided to hit the highway around noon for a quick progressive run that included the following:
3 Miles at 6:40/mile;
2 Miles at 6:30/mile; and
.5 Miles in 2:56.
With a half-mile cool-down, I ran 6 total miles on a hot, humid day with temperatures hovering around 90 degrees.

| Very hot and challenging mid-day run in 95 degree heat; 3 Miles at 6:40/mile, 3 Miles at 6:58/mile, and 3 Easy Miles, including about a mile worth of trails that weave through parts of my neighborhood in West Little Rock. Quarter mile trot home after doing three sets of pull-ups on the monkey bars at the neighborhood park by my house. No kids/parents were there...it was the middle of the day. Wesley |

| 5 Miles in 33:59 (6:48/mile) on another blistering afternoon in Little Rock; felt pretty good despite maybe my longest stretch of consecutive running days in my life (8). With a "Man Day" canoe trip planned for Saturday, the streak may stop at 10 days, however, which is probably a good thing so I don't end up hurting myself. Targeting 50-52 Miles again this week as I continue to gradually build toward 60 Miles/week of base mileage. Wesley |

| 15.25 Miles Easy in just under 1:54:00 (7:25 pace); needed to get in a long run after being forced into a rest day yesterday due to conflicts at work. Out the door by 4:20 am on my off day. And we wonder why non-runners think we're crazy. Nice run despite 80-85 degree temps and high humidity. Being out ahead of the morning commute traffic, I was able to run on some typically busy streets while making a long loop around West Little Rock. Wesley |

Out the door a little after 4:00 am for a quick run to hit 50 miles for the week. After a 1-mile warm-up, I bumped it up for 3 Miles in 19:39 (6:33/mile); quarter mile jog with two striders to cool down for 4.5 total miles. Headed up to north central arkansas with some friends in a few minutes to float the Spring River near the Arkansas-Missouri border. I'm very much looking forward to this "Man Day", as one of my buddies like to describes it. I have not been canoeing in several years. Wesley
