Roegner Park. About 8:30 a.m. this a.m. Ran solo today. Ran from start down to disc golf area and back, plus extra loop at end. I did this route twice. Then on last route I ran a little extra past the parking lot to trail on R, up slight hill to get a total of 9 miles today!:) It was a tough run because my muscles were sore from Fri. I got a blister on my L inner foot..:( My knee only slightly bothered me on left side but nothing huge. It acutally seemed to get better the longer I ran as I warmed up my muscles. Lots of people out. Ladies with alaskan dogs out too with their dogs karts they pulled. (interstesting).

Happy with my steady pace. I only walked twice. I remember I walked for 30 sec at start of 6 th mile but not sure the other time I walked. It seemed to give me more energy as my muscles wanted to quit.

Game Farm Park. Originally planned to run at BPA trail but due to bad weather Lisa and Nicole bailed. Decided to run at Game Farm. Weather cleared up just in time for my run which was awesome, however about 2.5 miles into it it did start to drizzle and then faster. I got a little drenched. Luckily, I had only planned to do 3 miles today. Felt good endurance and no knee probs :) (fingers crossed). Took it easy on this run as well; trying to watch  my pace so it is not too fast.

TT: 26:39 min    Avg: 8:52 min    Max: 6:58 min

Miles: 8:57, 9:05, 8:35  (I figured out why my last mile was so fast. It started to rain harder so I wanted to book it, lol)

BPA Trail. (hills) Ran about 5:45 p.m. Met up with Nicole and Lisa after working in Edgewood. Nice weather; sunny, partly cloudy, good temp. It acutally got a little warm later. Nicole rode her bike due to her shin problems. Lisa ran over 3 miles. It was fun to get together again! We ran usual route and back (to 2nd intersection). Then Nicole and I went back for another time through the reg route for a longer distance. Nicole did a sprint ride ahead of me. I just ended up running to 1st Ave S Rd and back. Total distance: 5.67 miles. very happy with that!

Hemlock Rd. Home-hemlock-1 reg loop around + thru gravel alley way and back same rd-to home. About 10 a.m. Hard to feel motivated today due to get going today for a run because sore from yesturday run up the hills. Everything felt fine though during run; just in the mood for reg mileage.
