Tired, stessed and poor hydration/nutrition today. Did a progression run in the warm, humid weather. Miles of 8:02, 7:47, 7:27, 7:05, and 6:30. The last mile was a little tough, sadly. |

| Wash Creek - 1:04 Nice evening run up Wash Creek. Handled it really well, and for the first time in a year, I felt like a little fitness might be coming back. Also, my back, knee and leg all felt pretty decent. |

| Borah track - 43:19 I'll call this one a moral victory. I did not want to get out and run at 9:00 pm and when I started, my body felt horrible. But I just kept jogging, and then did 4 x 200 (average 39) and 3 x 50m hard at the track. Really feel out of sorts, but glad I got out. Weights - 15 minutes |

Virginia Lake - 35:09
Hot run in the afternoon on a dirt path around Virginia Lake, which was right behind our hotel in Reno. Did 4 loops of the lake - felt pretty rough. Lots of driving, late nights and poor nutrition/hydration are to blame. |

| Canal Banks + BK Track - 38:53
It's been a busy last week, and I haven't run much. Landscape and fence projects have taken most of the time. This evening was a slog, but I got through it. 2.5 miles at the track at about 7:30/mile pace.

Easy pace while watching some "Good Will Hunting." Haven't seen that one in a while. A couple of pickups at the end of the run. Body felt really good today.

Ran pretty easy and did 8 x 100m strides on the soccer field at Bishop Kelly. Felt OK tonight, but getting a bad sore throat.

| Military reserve - 1:09
Long run from the YMCA with a group of about 7 runners, including Travis. Great group of people, and we had a nice run on the trails. Felt fine at the end, so I think I can finally start bumping it up a little bit. I think I've been babying myself in fear of injuring my back or losing more feeling in my leg. The reality is that if I increase things slowly and pay attention, I should be fine.
