ugh. Rough day for the long run. Started nice and early, but it was warm and humid. Last 5 miles I just ran out of steam. Also wasn't able to regularly get water so I'm sure that didn't help. Time: 4h25m54s per mile pace: 11:31.25

rough morning. After warming up nice a slow for 2 miles, my right calf muscle started to pull. I continued on and finished the run, walking the last 1/2 mile or so and it's obvious that I need to take hopefully only a couple days break. I iced my calf a couple times today and that seemed to help. Hopefully tomorrow after a day of rest it will be better by Wed....en verra...

| Was able to run nice and easy this morning. Warmed up walking for about 1/2 a mile to see how the calf felt and then jogged easy for about 4 miles. Last 1/2 mile walked to cool down. Felt much better but still slightly pulled. Will put in a few more miles tomorrow and see how it goes.

| run felt pretty good this morning. First 5 miles my calf felt fine but felt it start to pull just a twinge, so decided to not push it and walk the last mile.

Ran 6 x 1 mile repeats HARD. w.u. 1 mile. c.d. walked for about 10 minutes. 7:39, 7:27, 7:36, 7:40, 7:28, 7:29 predicted marathon pace: 9:41 predicted finish: 4:13:42 target pace 9:15 target finish 4:05 Have some work to do. Might have slowed down a bit just because it's quite warm and humid. Just wears on me. I pushed hard on every mile and walked about 5 minutes in between each mile. Next weekend will be a 26 miler. Boy am I thankful for a runny partner who pushes me!

| had a power outage last night and I came out to hear that the generator had been on most of the night. It's hit all of the neighborhood and both bridges over the Niger are dark. No running over the bridges this morning. Stayed in the neighborhood for 4 miles and then ventured out for the last 2.88 and it got uncomfortably dark for me especially since many of the motorcycles don't have a good headlight. I was also a bit tired. Yesterday was very warm and humid. Ready for a break tomorrow. 10:25, 10:21, 10:08, 10:05, 2.88 miles harder AP 8:49

| It was a nice run this morning, though very, very warm and humid. I will rest on Saturday then will be going 26 miles on Sunday. Forecast says it may rain on Sunday. I sure hope so! If not it will be a very hot and humid run.

| The morning started quite early. We were off at 3am. Temp was 78F and the humidity was a mere 90%. Didn't take long to start sweating. Overall it was a really good run. Felt strong still the last 5 miles. The only bummer was that I'm not sure exactly how far we ran. It was at least 26 miles but I think it was closer to 27 and maybe even 28. oops. I was well hydrated for this run and was able to keep my electrolytes up. My stomach was not very fond of the Luna moons this time around. Had a piece of bread with peanut butter and a banana about an hour before I ran and it seemed too much. Next time I will eat a bit less. I took Monday off as I was very tired because Sunday after the run was a very busy day. Still tired today (Monday) but will get out to do some running tomorrow morning. AP was somewhere between 10:58 and 11:43 need to get a Garmin!
