North Shore with Jordan and Mike from the PW CC. I felt great, I thought that I would be a little sore from yesterday but I didnt have any issues.

Easements and the Run for Trails 5k, felt okay. I did the Run for Trails 5k here in PW and finished first overall with a time of 16:35. I am still really tired from all of the racing and I could feel the effects of the cold I have had all week in my lungs. The splits were 5:18, 5:16 and 5:31. I registered this morning for the race because it was for a good cause and just felt like going out for a good tempo run. The kids also ran and both went under 30:00 for the first time.

Easement, felt great. I am going to run the local 5k here in PW tomorrow so I took it easy. I didnt decided to actual run it until half way through the run.

Nature Center Trails, felt okay. It was a little hot when I finally got out to run. My calves are still a little sore and I am recovering from the head cold but the pace felt pretty easy.

PMI-Liberty Point, felt great. My calves still were a little sore but there was a huge improvement from yesterday. Pushed hard for 3 minutes to the top of Liberty Point and reached 178HR. I weighed myself and as expected I weigh just a little over 180lbs. I would like to get down to 160 by January 17th so the goal is to be at 174 by November 1st, 167 by December 1st and 160 by January 1st. I know I wont be able to lose that much weight in the months of November and December but if I get ahead over the next couple of weeks I should be able to make it. The plan right now is the Fall Series, Rock Canyon Half and then the R&R marathon in Arizona.

Easement, tired. My calves are still tight and the chest cold I have slowed me down a bit. I am just trying to get back into a pattern of running everyday before October 1st when my road marathon training starts.
