90 miles this week which, for me, is an all-time high. I think that personal record will stand for quite a while--I'm beat. I ran 2 miles around the Albertsons loop and then 4 miles into the city center and jumped on the Pear Blossom route for next Saturday. The course is 5 miles out, 5 miles back and I threw in a 6 mile tempo run after 3 miles on the course: The quicker pace felt somewhat easy until the end and my hips tightened up and I was ready to be done. That wasn't a good thing as I had 6 more miles to go before I was home. I ran to the Comfort Inn by Harry & David and grabbed some water and downed some Gu and then ran the last 3 miles fairly rejuvenated. Overall pace for the run was 6:59; maybe a little too fast. I didn't mean for that to happen so....woops. Y2 (169)
