A bit of tempo

Ran and walked 7 miles at LBL in 1:20.   I walked a bit more than I have been lately but I ran a bit faster too.  I tried to focus on turnover and simply moving faster.  Something else I tried to do was focus on keeping my feet on the ground as little as possible.

Rick's Run

Yesterday Sam Voltaggio, Mark Lindsey and I ran 27 miles.  Jim Balthazar did the first 21 miles. Kelley Lightfoot and a friend Reenie probably did something over 20 miles and Diana Heynen did approximately 10.
45 mile week!!!

7 mile slog

Slogged thru 7 miles this evening after work at LBL.  Thursday's are never very good for running after work.  Starting to feel the fatigue from the week.  I got thru it in 1:35.

Wed evening

Got in 6.5 miles at Barton Creek from the HOL this afternoon after work.  Had planned on going further but am a bit tired from not getting my normal sleep.

Early morning asphalt

Early morning asphalt.....again.  It's interesting how things come and go in our routines.  Before Saturday I can't remember my last road run and here I go, doing it again this morning.  It's all good, just getting out there taking it easy, mixing in walking, running on pavement, sidewalks, through peoples yards, well not way up in their yards but in the grass a bit.  My time was 57:50.  With the unseasonably hot weather we're having I'm really going to have to start dragging my ass out of bed in the morning to get my miles in.  I really don't mind if the temps are high 90's, even 100 but 104....no thanks....not doing it.  Mileage was 5 miles btw.

Early 5 in the 'hood

Was on the road at 530 this morning getting an early 5 miles before we hit the road to East Texas.  Tomorrow morning have 5 planned with Misty's 14yr old nephew Vincent......really excited about that!!!!  I also realized I can't remember my last road run.....it's been a long time!!

Guh!

Slogged thru 4 miles at LBL after work this evening.   I'm surprised I even did it in 50 min.  It wasn't so hot as I was whipped from a stressful day.  I hope I can at least get in another 4 tomorrow evening.  My plan was for 7 tonight and tomorrow night.  I'm planning on not drinking Saturday evening so maybe Vincent and I can get in an easy 6 Sunday morning to make up for my missed mileage.  I'm shooting for 130 miles this month.

Temp was 101!!
