Treadmill - 20+

Ran on the treadmill at the Hyatt before checking out. We were under a bit of a time rush after sleeping in, so we just did 20 minutes. Last half mile at 6:20/mile pace.

Spent the rest of the day having fun, so didn't get out for another run like I'd planned.

A.M. - Tybee Island Beach - 23+

An easy barefoot jog on the beach at 9 a.m. Thought my achilles were both going to snap most of the way. Should have worn shoes. Great morning and not too many folks out yet.

P.M. - Run from Port Wentworth hotel - 27:43

Drove around looking for a good place to run, but couldn't find one! I opted for some back industrial roads that worked out OK in the end. Did 2.5 miles of the run at about 6:10 -6:15 pace, which was fairly tough at 6 pm in the heat and humidity.

Canal banks + run to Gold's - 42:52

Flew back to Boise. Got up at about 4:30 a.m. EST (2:30 a.m. our time) so it was a long day. I ran at about 2 p.m. and the weather was perfect - 80's and breezy. Right achilles really sore from the jog on the beach and the day of travel (travelling always messes with the achilles tendons).

PMI: Treadmill - 27:55

Achilles felt a little bit better after the day off. I maxed out at 7:30/mile pace so that helped too.

PMII: Canal Banks - 38:36

Ran with Rebecca right at twilight. Had a pretty good run. Minimal achilles soreness during run, but a little worse afterword.

Alpine Creek Trail - 1:30+

Power hiked up the trail, then ran down in the rain. Awesome trail on the back side of Redfish Lake. With Rebecca, Mat, Andy, Travis and Mike. Very memorable afternoon.
