Yesterday was as good a running day as you can get when you are just putting in the miles.

Lunchtime was a counter nobscott with out any of the hills in 48:02 for 7.2 with sergeant lutz. The weather was a little hot and humid in the trails which I think is just some moisture being trapped by the canopy. Forgot socks so I had to wear my 825’s bare and they fit quite well with no blisters. It actually felt quite good bringing me back to my college days of no socks and stinky feet. 3 sets of abs in the Raytheon fitness center after the run. Made it to the café just in time for some ice.

Last night I met up with the BAA crew at Lincoln woods. Ran 1:20 with Terry, Mark, Jeremy, eric, and Charlie, I think that was the crew. Good running with a lot of shop talk conversation and the trails were perfect as always. The bugs were not bad at all except for the last 2 minutes in the trials by the schools. 1:20:02 for 11.5.

Another early wake-up call this morning for a run into work. I took the Memorial Forest to Hop Brook trail in which I guesstimate is just about 11k. I clocked the last mile and it was a 6:13. Yeah, probably shouldn’t be running that fast. The loop usually takes me about 44 and this morning was 41:02 so I am going to try and dial the morning runs down a notch.

Today at lunch was a Nobscott Loop with both of the hills. The conditions were much better than they have been all week. 48:02 just like yesterday but both the hills were in there.

That’s all I got.
