Nice run this morning.  Found a running partner so that is nice!  So boring to always run alone.  Pace was 9:52.  Will be starting my 'official' training for the San Francisco Marathon on the 28th.  Goal: sub 4 hour marathon.  We shall see...

was careful today with my achilles.  since I run on an uneven, trail, surface, I was very conscious about my foot placement.  want to this to be healed!

11:32, 10:31, 10:56, 10:47, walked the last mile...fun to be sociable!

 

Ran this afternoon.  Achilles didn't bother me at all!  Went 3 miles at about a 10:00 pace then walked a mile.

goal was to run 10 miles no walk breaks and it went really well!  It was a bit warm and the air quality wasn't so good with the harmatans coming down from the Sahara desert, but I wore a mask and that helped.

12:01, 11:35, 11:12, 11:07, 11:08, 10:40, 10:27, 10:21, 10:38, 10:30

a/p was 10:57  I was shooting for a 10:40
