AM - 12 Twix/Dirt Mile. Ran Twix's loop with her. Then at practice, I ran with the girls for 45 mins on the Dirt Mile. We got three progressive miles in at 8:00, 7:40, 7:20. Good mid-distance run with a little push for them. They will be a special group for the next few years. (Barefoot '15 5)(Peg Black 44)

RHR: 45

afternoon - 6 ND. Temps near 100 had me ready for a hot afternoon. Hat, water bottle and some sunscreen. Actually not quite as hot as I thought. Running in the desert is nice because it gets you off the hot streets. (Kinvara green 343.25)

AM - 16 Sullivan Loop. Ran the neighborhood with Twix on her easy day and then down to the river for an attempt at some sort of workout. It was one of those, that you are kind of embarrassed to post because it was so slow. But lie I have said before, it is a place to start. Averaged 6:19 for the 5.5 mile loop - nowhere to go but up, hopefully. I thought I was pushing hard, but looking back at it, I kind of think I was chilling out way too much. No big though; just happy to be running and enjoying the celestial sunrise this morning. Then barefoot and some striders for practice. Doubled my barefoot mileage for the yer just this morn. A little bit of achilles pain here and there in the workout - don't like that. And a good Kids Club day. (Barefoot '15 10)(Adios 364.75)

RHR: 46

afternoon - 4.5 Dirt Mile. A few miles on the extended DM. Weather was overcast as a bit breezy to make the run much more pleasant than the usual summer afternoon run. Wasn't sure if I should run this afternoon with the bigger mileage this morning and already this week. But I figured I might as well with the weather and Al and the older two girls are headed to camp the rest of the week, so who knows exactly how it will play out. (Ronin 520)

AM - 13 Twix/Parkway. Took the dog out, didn't do all the extensions because my mileage is too high this week. Then over to practice and we ran the Parkway with extensions to hit our 60 mins. Felt good - a bit tired, but not bad. Came home to find that Twix had chewed on the couch. Either that freakin dog is going to die or I am... I don't know what that means, but it may express some of my anger at this time. (Barefoot '15 10.5)(Riders 262.25)

RHR: 39 - way down from the last week, will see if that's back where it should be or something else.

AM - 12.25 Parkway/ND. Took Twix around the Parkway with some extensions. Then an easy 30 for practice ending with striders. Pace today was pretty chill. Found a dead baby tortoise today, bummer.... Those boneheads developing near the fire station must have scared it onto the road. And then, death. (Barefoot '15 12)(Kinvara grey 25.75)

RHR: 40 - another lower rate. I think my body is just getting back to normal after the slice and dice.

No afternoon again. The only bummer is that temps are nice. But I have to be careful with the build up. Hopefully sound 80-85 this week and then around 100 next.

AM - 13.25 Townhomes/Prospector. Short run with the dog. Then practice at Coral Canyon. We looped up Highland and then onto Prospector and made a full loop to the Quail Industrial trail entrance and back to the park. Run was very good. We put in a little pick up for the last mile. Had a good chat about the team's focus as well as PED use. The young guys are doing amazing as well. And of course the girls are doing awesome. (Barefoot '15 12.5)(Peg 429.75)

RHR: 40 - settling in where it should be the last few days.

AM - 19.25 Southern Parkway. Stevey, Logan and I out for a jaunt. Nothing quick (ave 7:00); I just wanted to finish a long run at the end of the week. Felt totally fine and I feel my confidence growing as I start to get into shape a bit. (Peg black 63.25)

RHR: 43

Got more mileage than planned this week. But I only ran two doubles, so I don't think I was overburdening myself. Heart rate returned to normal and life is good.

Goals for next week: see how the body responds to the higher mileage and keep building from there.
