Nice run this morning.  Longest run since arriving stateside.  Saw 3 coyotes, 2 at 5:15am and 1 at 7:30am.  Can't believe there was a coyote out at 7:30 as there are many bikes and runners out on the river trail.  Brave guy.

 a/p 10:16

11:35, 10:54, 10:49, 11:09, 10:38, 11:03, 10:41, 10:13, 11:03, 10:34

Wanted to get a 10 mile run in today and to do 4 miles at marathon pace in the middle.  Wasn't sure what I was going to be able to do as I was pretty tired today.  The results:

10:44, 10:00, 10:32

8:59, 8:51, 8:45, 8:55

10:22, 11:12, 9:45

Mile 8 and 9 were a bit of a surprise..HILLS...went a bit off my regular route in order to get in my 10 miles..figure I gave myself some tough hills.  Good for the SF marathon next month!

Started my run at 4:30am.  It was a slow run but good.  Excitement of the morning was sharing the road with a rattlesnake!  Needless to say I gave him the right of way.

oooo boy howdy...long run and a very warm run.  Made it though.  Had to really take it easy as it warmed up.  When I finished it was 93 which doesn't sound too hot for Tucson, but it was too hot for me!  a/p was slow:  10.59.
