It ain't Chinese algebra!

I found a pretty sweet out and back course from my house that's exactly 5 miles. It took me up a dirt road into the hills above East Medford and when I turned around to come back down I could see the whole valley. Anyway, I didn't run until after work today and I don't know if that was so wise. It was very hot and I don't enjoy it nearly as much as a morning run.

Nice and easy around town, including 2 miles around St. Mary's track. Enjoyable morning.

5 very easy miles on the treadmill while I studied flashcards.  It wasn't too bad-- I might have to do that again during the next couple weeks.  Also broke in a new pair of Adidas Supernova's.  It's the first time I've ever tried this model and after the first run, they feel very good.

4 miles around the subdivision and then 2 more on the treadmill after I got home so I could study for a bit. I feel like anytime I'm not studying, I'm wasting time. That makes getting a good run in hard to do.

All around Medford this morning. Started by going west across the freeway, then north past the mall and nearly to Central Point. I crossed back over the freeway and ran the last 10 miles or so around East Medford. For the first time in what feels like ages, I felt REALLY good today. It was nice to finally have a Saturday to go out and relax for a couple hours and not worry about a race, moving, job, etc.
