Treadmill + Canal banks - 1:18

Tried to get a long run out without being outside in the wind and dust too much. My sinuses and lungs are already irritated enough. Did 46 minutes on the treadmill and 32 minutes on the canals. Felt pretty strong. 28+ miles in the last 3 days - pretty good for me right now.

Greenbelt - 46:30

Ran from the train depot down Crescent Rim and onto the Greenbelt where I did a 20 minute tempo run at about 6:10/mile. Felt pretty strong this afternoon. A couple of pickups on the cool down.

Canal banks + Bishop Kelly campus - 32:10

Super tired and feeling horrible this afternoon. Finally convinced myself to get out for a short run. Did 20 minutes of it on the grass running back and forth watching at track meet at BK. Glad I got out but not my best run.

Treadmill - 32:05

Nice afternoon outside, but had to run indoors as Nora was sleeping. Hence, the treadmill run. That's my life right now. Had planned to run early before work but slept through the alarm. Classic.

Scriver Creek - 1:12

Amazing run on beautiful afternoon. Parked in my usual spot (snowmoblile area) and headed up the road. Made it five miles up in about 40 minutes - great time for the elevation gain and gravel road. Then I ran into some kids who had gotten their car stuck in some mud, so I helped them flag down a truck and we got them out. This cut my run a little short (was shooting for 1 hour 30 minutes) so I hammered back down in 6:34, 5:42, 5:39 and 5:48. Great run today. Feel like my fitness is getting there.
