Ok, ok, I'll write something :) Today I waited for the rain to get going as hard as it looked like it was going to get before I went out. I put in 8 miles with 4 x 100 accels. I got remarkably wet - and it felt great! My HR is still too high, but I think it's gradually getting better. No more Flexeril for me ever again!

You can tell it's the end of summer when it can be 50* and pouring rain one day and 70* with full sun the next around here. Today's easy run was quite warm. I ran with a buddy at his 'hundred pace' as we went up and down Cedar Butte, then partway up Rattlesnake and back. My lack of recent training is really making itself known. My legs were dead the last couple miles. They better start coming back soon, as my 5 week marathon training plan starts this weekend!

What a great day today! I went out earlier than my normal (I'm not really a morning person). It was already 70* out and sunny at 7:00. I did ~4 miles easy up the Iron Horse trail, then turned it up about .5 mile before turning around and doing the next three gentle downhill miles at MP followed by a cool down  mile. My feet are bothering  me a little, but at least my back is nearly better!

Wore Inspire shoes to see if the extra 'stability' would help L foot but it didn't seem to. Easy pace run.
