9 miles on the hospital loop. A storm rolled in yesterday but the run wasn't too bad. It was a little windy but not too cold so I won't complain.

I ran the Desperate Housewives loop this morning, plus the hospital loop on my way home.  My math was fuzzy and I ended up running 2 more miles than I planned.  I'm not sure how that happened--I guess running the course in reverse threw me off.  Anyway, it wasn't a problem physically to go the extra miles, it just made me a little late to start my day.

8 miles on Ryan's loop.  No rain this morning which was a nice change.  Both of my hip flexors have been a little tight since the marathon.  Today was the worst day so far.  Still runnable, but tight none the less.

9 miles on the hospital loop to Boones Ferry, to Avery street and then home.  No tightness to speak of like yesterday.  In fact, today was probably the best I've felt since the marathon.

10 miles this morning in near perfect temperature.  50 degrees with zero wind and the rain had stopped 30 minutes prior to getting outside.  Fantastic.  I ran up Boones Ferry to Tualatin HS and ran a couple miles around the track, then made my way home the same route.  Feeling good!

13 miles this morning.  I ran into Sherwood, past Target and the YMCA and then home via the back roads before finishing off with Ryan's loop.  I think this is a course I've only ran two other time in the past year.  I should run it more as the hills would be very beneficial but I don't love running on Highway 99 without a sidewalk.  Traffic isn't too bad on early Saturday mornings though so I managed fine.  I felt pretty good throughout, even picking up the pace the final 3 miles. 

Another week in the books and I'm glad the mileage was decent.  In fact, with today's run, I passed my yearly total from 2009 (2,497) which makes 2010 an all-time high for me.  I should be able to keep the mileage consistent these next two months and reach the 3,000 mile mark.
