| This morning I went for around a 5 mile hike up Mt. Diablo. I was surprised to see how much it wore me out, but I felt like my long run was still required. I managed to find the way from Finley road up to the Morgan Territory trails and it was quite nice. I was amazed however, that noone else was out on those trails! | | Add Comment |

| Man it was tough getting started today. I ran a mile on the track just to check my pacing and found that I've been running something less than 6:30 for most of my miles. After getting started my legs felt pretty good and the weather was beautiful! | | Add Comment |

| A bit of a longer run. Because my legs felt good after 10 I picked up the pace for the final 3 miles. | | Add Comment |

| In Albuquerque so the elevation was kind of rough, but after settling in it felt pretty good. Started out for 2.5 with Cara and then ran up Bear Canyone Arroyo. Honestly if my legs can feel anywhere that good at 18 miles into a race I'll be quite satisfied. | | Add Comment |

| Went five with John E. and Shawn. Nice easy miles, but the wind was kind of rough. Then I went 7 more when I got home. I ran up through Bear Canyon Arroyo and probably went too fast. Oh well I suppose. My legs are getting a bit rough from the increased mileage, but all in all I'm holding together remarkably well. | | Add Comment |

| Got up early to fly back to Cali and didn't have the motivation to go for a long run after heading to the grocery store and settling in. I was thinking about reducing mileage this week anyway to give myself somewhat of a recovery week. My legs feel great but something tells me a week of lighter mileage will really do me good. I'll shoot for somewhere around 65-70 I suppose. Perhaps I'll even put in a day of biking rather than running ... does anyone have a rational way to count time on the bike in terms of a long run substitute? | | Add Comment |

| Ran the outer loop and figured if I'm running less miles this week I can afford to go a bit faster. It took the first 3 miles to warm up, 2 more to start to stretch out and then I can 3 miles pretty quick. I clocked the last mile or so around 5:15 pace so I felt really good about that. | | Add Comment |

| Outer loop again but with an extension so that I could test my pacing on a local track ... 6:30. I was pleased to see that 6:30s roll off comfortably after 10+ miles. | | Add Comment |

| Out Tassajara and then cross country. Over fences, through mud, a few cow pies, a twisted ankle (its a good thing I'm in pretty good shape or I'd still be up there), and finally down through the Dublin Ranch roads. I started off feeling pretty bad but pretty soon I really perked up and felt great by the end. | | Add Comment |

| After two days of very slow mileage my legs felt awesome!! I really blasted too quickly though my inner loop and again backwards. We will see how tomorrow feels. | | Add Comment |

| Outer loop and then up through the construction site. Added the extension on the way home so it was probably a bit longer than 13 but I like the nice round numbers. Legs felt good and I'm beginning to get so that 13 miles feels like about the distance where I should start to try and open it up a bit. | | Add Comment |
