groove

Best running morning in quite sometime today.  Me, Misty and Ellie gott in 2 miles and then Shan and I got in 6 more!  I felt amazingly good during the miles with Shan.  I'm fully convinced now that it takes me several miles to get warmed and in any kind of groove.  Outstanding morning of running!

100k

One mile easy with Ellie and then two more easy solo miles.   I'm ramping up for the Rocky Raccoon 100k in February!!

miles

2 mile walk with Ellie Saturday morning.  1 mile walk with Ellie yesterday and then I went downtown and ran 7.  This morning Ellie and I got in 1 mile and then I did 2 more!!

July 4th

Ellie joined me and Shan for the first mile of our 5 miles this morning.  Me and Ellie were both dragging a bit because she was up late pacing because of the fireworks last night.  I hate that they upset her so much.  Interesting how the fireworks don't seem to bother the cats one bit.

We had a great July 4th.  Steve and Tracy invited us out on the boat Tuesday evening and then we had a big cookout at their house yesterday.  I cooked 40 of Pa's burgers yesterday for a boatload of people and got a bunch of compliments!!  Very good day!!

reconfigured

I spent part of the day out doing deliveries but I spent my office time reconfiguring my blog.  I've got all my mileage charts separated by the first 20 years of running and then whatever comes after that.  I'm weirdly anal about getting all my stats organized in a coherent manner.

Early 1 mile with Ellie and then a solo 4 mile loop this morning!!

junk miles

These are definitely the dog days of summer.  This morning I did 2 easy miles with Ellie and then 5 more with Shan.  I can't hardly run a half mile without taking a walk break it seems.  But that's okay, that's the way it is this time of year.  Lots of junk miles.....

summer

I've been getting in some miles but they've been super slow.  I did the 7 mile loop Saturday and yesterday, both in 90 minutes.  Lots of walking.  I'm not worrying too much about it.  I've been spending lots of energy and thought on my AA stuff so that's good.  'Tis the season for slow summer miles.....
