12+ miles

I did the Mayors Marathon course from Bartlett to just past the Mooses Run golf course and back. I felt pretty good. My last couple miles were around 6:20 pace. I feel like I did a pretty good job this week with being super busy. I definetly didn't get the sleep I needed though. I hope I can get rested up and have a couple of good runs before next saturday's 10K in Fairbanks.

Not happy about it, but had no time to run. Very run down after summer school and camp.

9 miles

Summer school and the wrestling camp began. I didn't think I would have time to run. But I knew I needed to if I wanted to race well on June 20th. I ran at 10pm and finished at 11pm. I don't like running that late, but I felt good. I ran the south loop and felt strong too.

Wanted to run but seriously had no time. Summer school and moving wrestling mats all day!

I ran the south loop at a pretty good clip (6:29 pace). Tried to stay smooth and I felt pretty good. Another beautiful and sunny day. Above 70 degrees at 5pm when I ran. I can't believe the weather we have been having since the end of april. Keep it up please.

Nice and easy today with the heart rate monitor to Huffman and back with a little extra. Heart rate stayed below 150. Nice and warm out.
