| Road run with Hill. I wasn't planning on meeting up with her after work, so I had to borrow all her running clothes. She laughed at me when she saw me in a baggy shirt and mesh shorts to my knees. She said it looked like I was a kid out running with my coach. I guess I don't look like I'mn turning 26 in a week. We meant to run for 45 minutes, but we were fast and the loop took less time than planned. |

| Weekly skyline trail run with Hill and dad. Felt far more painful than the past weeks. My first thought was that I am out of shape. And then I remembered I ran 5 hours on Sunday, when I usually barely run 5 hours a week. Yeah, that may be it. I'm surprised that I was not the least bit sore after the Highlander though. I guess we were going too slow :) |

| Even though I was looking forward to running all day (unusual for me) I still had to push myself out the dorr. I think in my mind running is much more difficult than it actually is. I ran up to Hammond Pond, which takes about 3 minutes and then ran around on the trails. It's a good sized trail network if you want to run for about a half hour or so, but even getting up to 45 minutes required running some sections again. Crossing back over Hammond Pond Parkway to get home is a pain though. That itself took almost 5 minutes or standing and waiting for traffic to ease up. |

| My longest and probably lowest finish in the Highlander so far. Possibly due to the fact that Ross actually ran a good race :) along with many others. Also the 20+ minute error Hill and I made didn't help. Wasn't navigating cleanly and it really showed. Quite tired by the end and so very very tempted to stop early, but Hill made me keep going. Ran with Corrinne and Hill for the second half of the could which was nice. Ran into two bees nests, which was not nice. My poor left calf was stung a total of 3 times and my elbow once. |
