Six

Thursday, June 12:

Randy and I ran a fairly easy 6 miles on the Gateway Trail. After the heavy rain in the previous 36 hours the trail was like a rain forest, so lush and green. Spring is over and summer is here! Randy was having a little trouble with a hamstring, so we stopped a couple of times for stretching, but all in all it was a very nice run. No pains of any kind.

Splits: 9:29, 8:57, 8:33, 8:38, 8:53, 9:17, total 53:47, pace 8:58 overall. I was shooting for 9:30's but we overperformed just a little even with the stretches. S’ok. This finished 24 miles for the week, down about 1/3 from the prior week.



Post-run breakfast: Gluten-free oatmeal with organic flame raisins and dried cranberries, organic strawberries, blueberries, banana, organic nectarine, organic walnuts, Dove dark chocolate, organic pomegranate juice, organic nonfat milk. That'll hold ya 'til noon.
