Good morning run. Took the MWF route with Randy then did another 3 on my own. Started slower 7:45 and gradually increased until my final mile was at 7:04.

Felt tired most of the way this morning. Summer is definitely here. It was warm for a morning run.

Legs were really feeling heavy this morning. I put in some extra miles on Monday and Tuesday and then I got a load of gravel, so I spent Tuesday evening shoveling rocks. Now I just feel tired.

Still feeling tired. Life keeps getting in the way of my running.

I'm running 50+ miles a week and still feel like a slug. What's up with that?

Felt better this morning. Not a lot of talking on the run, just running.

Thinking about doing 15 tomorrow morning.

Eagle, Idaho 7:00 am

Pace: 7:34

Not a bad run for the end of a pretty high mileage week. I went down Eagle Road to the greenbelt, over to Glenwood and back home. Held a comfortable pace the whole way.

I took a gel at 7.5 miles. I nursed it for about a half mile instead of sucking it all down at once. I think that's what I need to do from now on. It went down easier and I didn't have a gut ache. I think I'll take two on the half marathon next Saturday and see how it goes down at race pace. I felt bad because I tied the empty gel packet to the drawstring of my shorts, but when I got to a trash can it was gone. I became the answer to the question "who's the pig who littered the greenbelt?"
