| | 5 miles around the golf course in the pouring rain. Actually it wasn't that bad but my shirt was soaked and I needed the change it so I returned home. Then I decided to jump on the treadmill rather than get even more wet. 6 miles was all I could handle tonight. White (410)

| | Nice run this morning. I ran around Albertsons, south past Home Depot and then the hills of East Phoenix to Talent. Rather than come back the same way, I jumped on the pathway to exit 24 and home past Home Depot again. I picked up the pace twice for 2 mile tempo portions; the first was on the trail, miles 8 and 9 (6:01 and 5:42). The next two were on North Phoenix Highway from Home Depot to Centennial Golf Course (5:48 and 5:59). Boston (113) | Add Comment |
| | 4 miles to the Walker's, 5 miles with my Dad and 6 miles back home. Pretty tired this morning but after a couple miles I woke up. Great weather--it's supposed to get up to 70 by tomorrow. White (425)

I overslept and only had time for 8 miles this morning. It's supposed to hit 70 today so maybe I'll sneak out this afternoon and run a couple more, but if not, no biggie. I kept it simple today by running the St. Mary's/Albertsons loop twice. No watch. Boston (121) 4 more miles with the dog, 1 of which was ran barefoot on the grass. Sinister (285)

| | 9 mile 'warm-up' around the golf course and Albertsons/St. Mary's. My legs felt fresh but I was only able to manage 7:30's through this point. I then began a 6 mile tempo by running around Albertsons, west on Barnett to the pathway, south to Phoenix and then north past Home Depot on North Phoenix Highway. My goal was to just be under 6:00/mile on each one and after 6 miles I felt good enough to extend it to 7. Again I felt alright and pushed it one more mile for 8 miles total. Splits: - 5:50
- 5:56
- 5:44
- 5:49
- 5:48
- 5:51
- 5:45
- 5:39
I was pleased with an average pace of 5:48 and most pleased with the last mile as it included a steep uphill behind Home Depot. I jogged the final 3 miles home and then was told to take the dog for an additional mile. That final one was rough--I was tired, thirsty, tight, and hungry. Now my morning is free on Saturday to drive to the coast for some fish and chips, clam chowder and whale watching. C'mon good weather!! White (446)

Whale watching was put on hold for a few days because of rainy weather on the coast. Wednesday is looking better so we may go then. Anyway, that opened the morning up for a run with my dad. We ran past Home Depot to Phoenix, then the bike path to Barnett and home for 10 miles. Surprisingly, my legs felt pretty good after yesterdays 21 miles. This run put me at 84 for the week, my highest ever. Boston (131)
