Running 1:41:58 [3] 9.1 mi (11:12 / mi)
slept:7.25 shoes: Escalante G2

Kitchen sink. Wanted to close out the month with a longer effort and log a 40+ mile week before the 3-month heart-of-summer closes out. Timed short walk breaks in between decent blocks of running kept the wheels from falling off. Overall, not bad at all. Definitely ready for a zero tomorrow though.

Thursday Aug 30, 2018 #

Running 1:02:55 [1] 5.15 mi (12:13 / mi)
ahr:120 max:133 slept:7.75 shoes: Escalante B/G

H/BL. Ever so slightly rain "cooled" morning. I'll take whatever I can get. Basically a carbon copy of yesterday's effort. Felt fine, especially given that this was the sixth day in a row.

Wednesday Aug 29, 2018 #

Running 1:02:19 [1] 5.15 mi (12:06 / mi)
ahr:121 max:133 slept:7.75 weight:158lbs shoes: Escalante Grey

H/BL. Felt pretty relaxed throughout. Not especially quick, but not terrible either. Just another brick in the wall.

Tuesday Aug 28, 2018 #

Running 1:02:22 [1] 5.05 mi (12:21 / mi)
ahr:120 max:132 slept:7.75 shoes: Escalante G2

H/BL. A little rain late yesterday managed to achieve what I thought impossible - it was even more jungle miserable this morning. Legs were a bit flat but felt ok otherwise.

Monday Aug 27, 2018 #

Running 51:14 [1] 4.2 mi (12:12 / mi)
ahr:120 max:134 slept:7.0 shoes: Escalante B/G

Hermann. Trouble falling asleep ((I blame the full moon) and horrid late-summer conditions should have meant a sub-par run, but this one felt pretty good.

Sunday Aug 26, 2018 #

Running 1:29:05 [1] 7.25 mi (12:17 / mi)
ahr:122 max:134 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante G2

H/RL+. Slightly nastier conditions than yesterday, but everything felt better overall today.

Walking 39:48 [1] 1.7 mi (23:25 / mi)
shoes: Escalante G2

Dog walk.

Walking 41:06 [1] 2.35 mi (17:29 / mi)
shoes: Lone Peak 4.0

The Ho. A test drive of the LP 4.0s after weekend time at the office. Hadn't been on the trails in forever. Stayed kind of overcast, so it wasn't too miserable. Plus, it's been so dry that bugs weren't an issue either. Most important - the shoes felt great. I have high hopes that Altra finally got this one right.

Saturday Aug 25, 2018 #

Running 1:15:27 [1] 6.1 mi (12:22 / mi)
ahr:122 max:134 slept:7.5 shoes: Escalante Grey

H/RS. Maybe not quite as nasty as it has been recently. Had a lot of trouble relaxing into this one. HR was a bit quick to rise and slow to fall. Finally started feeling a little more chill over the last 1.5. Oh well. Got it done and that's something.

Walking 44:51 [1] 2.05 mi (21:53 / mi)
shoes: Escalante Grey

Dog walk.

Thursday Aug 23, 2018 #

Running 50:13 [1] 4.0 mi (12:33 / mi)
ahr:122 max:154 slept:7.5 shoes: Escalante G2

HS/BL. Ugh. As if the staggeringly nasty conditions weren't bad enough, clipped the lip of a dirt to sidewalk transition and despite almost recovering, went down. Not terribly hard, but when it's fucking concrete, you don't have to land hard for it leave a mark. Or, in this case, marks. Thought about immediately packing it in, but farted around until I got 4 miles. Bleh.

Wednesday Aug 22, 2018 #

Running 1:01:20 [1] 5.05 mi (12:09 / mi)
ahr:122 max:137 slept:7.75 weight:160lbs shoes: Escalante G2

H/BL. Much better effort than yesterday. A slowish first mile to see what was what, but everything after that was pretty solid. Hot as everliving fuck. NB1.

Tuesday Aug 21, 2018 #

Running 45:11 [1] 3.6 mi (12:33 / mi)
ahr:122 max:133 slept:7.25 shoes: Escalante Grey

Hermann. Sort of a hot mess all around. HR was high right from the get go. Couldn't figure out if it was actually high or if the HRM was fucking up. Probably the later, as things normalized a bit after a mile or so. But it was hot as hell - maybe the nastiest morning of the summer, and my mojo was already broken, so I cut it short with a dog's breakfast of a route. Legs felt good though. That's something. Also, putting it out there - no booze for 30 days starts today.

Sunday Aug 19, 2018 #

Running 1:30:04 [2] 8.3 mi (10:51 / mi)
slept:7.5 shoes: Escalante G2

H/RL/BL+. An off-leash, long-ish effort on a very warm morning. A relaxed first mile and final 1.3. The miles in between averaged around 10:20. Each mile had two brief walk breaks to keep the engine from overheating.

Walking 41:45 [1] 1.8 mi (23:12 / mi)
shoes: Escalante G2

Hot dog walk.

Saturday Aug 18, 2018 #

Running 1:14:29 [1] 6.2 mi (12:01 / mi)
ahr:121 max:133 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante Grey

H/RS. Malarial heat and humidity. Felt fine overall.

Walking 43:28 [1] 2.05 mi (21:12 / mi)
shoes: Escalante Grey

Dog walk.

Thursday Aug 16, 2018 #

Running 32:51 [2] 2.6 mi (12:38 / mi)
slept:7.25 shoes: Escalante B/G

Hermann. Sprints before heading out for a quick trip. Legs did not feel very lively but the pace was solid for each.

Wednesday Aug 15, 2018 #

Running 56:47 [2] 5.25 mi (10:49 / mi)
slept:7.5 weight:157lbs shoes: Escalante Grey

H/BL. No motivation to do MAF this morning, but I did sorta of feel like actually running a bit, so I left the leash at home. Felt pretty decent. Felt like I stepped out of the shower by the time I made it home though.

Tuesday Aug 14, 2018 #

Running 1:02:03 [1] 5.1 mi (12:10 / mi)
ahr:122 max:132 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante G2

H/BL. Started out feeling really good - legs felt almost light. Wore down a bit over the last couple of miles. Still, not a bad run in typically horrendous conditions.

Monday Aug 13, 2018 #

Running 52:06 [1] 4.25 mi (12:15 / mi)
ahr:120 max:133 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante B/G

Hermann. A short effort after the longer weekend stuff. Brutally nasty, breezeless morning. Truly the dog days. That time of year where you start to see the cross country runners and the marathon groups popping up, which tells you that fall is not that far away. But the conditions say otherwise.

Sunday Aug 12, 2018 #

Walking 43:24 [1] 2.07 mi (20:58 / mi)
shoes: Escalante G2

Dog walk.

Running 1:26:06 [2] 8.0 mi (10:46 / mi)
slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante G2

H/RL/BL+. Off leash, "long", and somewhat more intensity than usual. Felt pretty decent overall. Did a lot of running around the Rice loop, including 1.25 nonstop (woo hoo). Definitely pulled back over the last couple of miles because it was hot and I didn't want to be totally cooked.

Saturday Aug 11, 2018 #

Running 1:15:17 [1] 6.2 mi (12:09 / mi)
ahr:121 max:132 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante Grey

H/RS+. Stupendously sucky conditions. Can't imagine the air being more saturated or there being less movement of said air. Just atrocious. Managed ok, but I was definitely feeling the heat over the last couple of miles.

Walking 47:30 [1] 2.3 mi (20:39 / mi)
shoes: Escalante Grey

Dog walk.

Wednesday Aug 8, 2018 #

Running 1:00:07 [1] 5.05 mi (11:54 / mi)
ahr:121 max:133 slept:8.0 weight:158lbs shoes: Escalante G2

H/BL. Rinse and repeat conditions. Felt ok but made pretty good time. There's been unmistakable progress over the last few months. Yay.

Tuesday Aug 7, 2018 #

Running 1:01:25 [1] 5.05 mi (12:10 / mi)
ahr:119 max:132 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante B/G

H/BL. Typical August morning. Nasty, zero breeze. Can't get enough. Felt fine overall. HRM fritzed out a bit during mile 4, which led to more walking as I took it off a few times. Really ready for just ever so slightly less hot weather.

Sunday Aug 5, 2018 #

Running 1:24:54 [1] 7.0 mi (12:08 / mi)
ahr:121 max:133 slept:8.0 shoes: Escalante Grey

H/RXL. Was pretty concerned with how the foot was going to hold up and was prepared to cut it short, if necessary. But things stayed fine until the last mile, and even then it was manageable. Generally felt solid, although the heat and miles slowed things down a bit toward the end.

Saturday Aug 4, 2018 #

Walking 38:24 [1] 1.65 mi (23:17 / mi)
shoes: Escalante G2

Dog walk.

Running 1:11:58 [1] 6.0 mi (12:00 / mi)
ahr:121 max:134 slept:7.5 shoes: Escalante G2

H/RS. Maybe not quite as dialed in as yesterday, but still pretty good. Some foot pain behind the right big toe became an issue late in the run, as did the heat. Still, not bad.

Friday Aug 3, 2018 #

Running 1:00:07 [1] 5.05 mi (11:54 / mi)
ahr:120 max:133 slept:7.25 shoes: Escalante Grey

H/BL. Another not quite as nasty warm morning. That and the fact that I felt super solid led to one of the better MAF runs in quite some time. It comes in fits and starts, but there's definitely been progress.

Thursday Aug 2, 2018 #

Walking 48:38 [1] 2.26 mi (21:31 / mi)
shoes: Escalante B/G

Dog walk.

Wednesday Aug 1, 2018 #

Running 50:32 [1] 4.2 mi (12:02 / mi)
ahr:120 max:137 slept:7.5 weight:159lbs shoes: Escalante B/G

Hermann. Kept it short after yesterday's longer effort. A front came through (more of a dry front than a cool front) - rare for this time of year. Only knocked about 7-8 degrees off the heat index, but that makes a real difference. Felt good overall and came really close to going under 12:00 / mile. Definitely some slow progress.
