Last week I was at camp, which made for a very low mileage week.

This week included traveling back to DC and a decent week of running.

Mon. 12mi 1:48:00
Tues. Travel Day. Ultimate Frisbee in evening.
Wed. AM 4mi 32 min

PM ultimate frisbee
Thurs. PM: PT 15 sets 10x push 20x sit 30x arm haulers
1.5 hr. swim
30 min. bike, and 45 min. weights
Fri. ~25 mi. 4:34:00 Ran part of the race course along the Potomac, which includes hiking and a decent amount of rock hopping. Got a little overheated at the end. Played ultimate frisbee right after.

New goals have included waking up earlier and running in the mornings to prepare for race day.

Post update

Have not posted for a while. I'm back in Neb. visiting family; however, that does not mean that running has stopped.

This has ended up being a great week of running while getting in lots of hill running at a little higher altitude compared to DC.

July 5-11
Sunday: 10 miles 1:28
Monday: AM 5 mi
PM 10 mi
Tues: 15 mi 2:08 Blisters are no fun.
Wed: ~18-19 mi 2:46
Thur: 11 mi 1:44 Did not feel good on this run.
Fri: Off
Sat: 20 mi. 2:50 Felt absolutely wonderful!
90 miles for the week. Almost 600 miles on the shoes.
I am pleased with the effort this week and am glad I took Friday off.

Will be without internet access for the next week, so in the meantime happy running.
