Back from Boston- History trip. Fantasic! I will post some pictures when I get caught up. The only negative was it was so busy and fast paced that I missed 4 days of runs. I ran trials and lots of hills today. I figured I needed the push.

Heating up and heavy air. Good to be running the bike path near home again, but my legs are still heavy from the trip. 

What is even more fatiguing is time back at work. I wonder if IJR has figured out how to skip time ahead yet.

New shoes. Kinvara 5's on sale. There is a nice feeling breaking in new shoes! Warm today, but humidity is shockingly low for Ohio. 44%, I'll take that!! 

That first week back to work after vacation is a killer. It's like you need a vacation from the vacation. 6 Miles.

Is there a better way to break in new shoes? I think not!  Humdity was back up but DP was low so today's run was not too bad. 64/88%/59DP- not bad at all. 

There was a 10k on the bike path so on the way through they handed me some water and gatorade. I think it makes a training a whole lot better. I wonder if they will just do that always. Probably not, but its a nice thought.
