AM: Started the day by sleeping in.  That felt good.  13 miles around the hospital loop and South over the 205 and West over I-5, eventually emerging at Horizon Christian HS.  I jumped on the xc course at Tualatin HS along with 1 mile on the track and then home via Boones Ferry.  More tonight?

PM: 6 miles at the Tualatin HS track.  Goals starting out were 12 laps in 75 seconds or less but as this was my first speed workout in months (and I'd already ran 13 miles this morning), I wasn't sure how things would end up.  I ran 2 miles for a warm up and then started the repeats.  Between each was a 100-150 meter jog.

I jogged a full 400 meters and then did 4 more.

I was pretty spent by this point and was trying to talk myself into being done.  I managed to compromise with a final 800 (2:26) and then 2 laps barefoot before calling it a day.
