Easy miles at Tempe Beach park. Ditched work to run it, making them that much more rewarding.

Day six of running, need to run tomorrow morning too as can't run Sat/Sunday morning with wife out of town. New plan is to take 60 consecutive hrs off each week, run a morning (Fri), skip the following day (Sat), and run the next night (Sun). Should help make 6 day weeks easier to keep up and accomodate 2x days when they start.

Felt good, little leg soreness from not running a lot for a year, but it will work itself out.

Scheduled to run a few today, but I'm sick with stomach bug, so no running. Should still be able to run 24 weekly, may have to bump Sat to 10 miler. No worries.

Easy eight on the canals. Wanted 10 but was tired from racing/running the last two days. 17 miles in 36 hours, its easy to over run when you look at the actual time between runs even though they were on three separate days.

Mileage at Tempe Beach park around the lake to McClintock and back to the park. Felt easy. Thought I was was going to run 3-4 but it kept on going.

Capped off the week with an easy 2.7 in the night for my first 2x day in awhile. Week is done a day early though wahoo.

5k at Cheetah run with a short warmup. Great race, easy running, recent training made racing easy. Not sure of time due to computer issues at the race.
