Misc. jogging with Emily and the girls in the stroller while watching Karl at the 70.3. Pretty exciting event - if I could swim, I'd consider doing it.

Canal banks - 23:10

Ran at 9:30 P.M. You gotta love Boise, Idaho in June when it's light at 9:30. The hip/glute felt much better today and I was able to run about 8:20/mile pace for my first solo run in over 3 weeks.

Mike Miller trail - 50+

One of my favorite places to run - Mike Miller trail in Newport, Oregon. On a sweet vacation for the week. Did numerous laps on the trail just soaking it in, grinding up as slow as I needed and coasting on the downhills. Great morning.

Body is beat up from 12 hours of driving yesterday. Haven't done back exercises in over a week. This run hurt a little bit. Average pace of 7:48/mile.

Canal banks + Borah track - 40:11

Easy pace at twilight with some easy speedwork to work out some of the kinks. 3 x 200m strides at 45, and 5 x 60-70m accelerations. Really slow tonight, but trying to get into some basic strides/form work every day to get back into the groove.

10 minutes easy core work.

Borah track - 40+

Ran quite a bit of it with Emily on a very warm afternoon. Did 6 x 200m strides at 45-42. Didn't feel good at all - but only slept a few hours last night and the heat and fatigue got to me.

Good stretching post run and 3 x 12 pushups.

Ran from the zoo upstream to Warm Springs Golf Course and back. Did a bit of a progression run - 8:43 (talking to some friends I saw that were biking), 7:45, 7:23, 7:19 and 7:07. Did a couple of pickups in the last mile.

Elliptical + treadmill - 34+

10 minutes on elliptical and 24 on the treadmill. Jogged easy - rolled my ankle bad in Garden Valley on Saturday and its still a little tweaked.
