Wet... 71/99%/70DP.... Saw 2 deer in the river, luckily that was during the warmup so I enjoyed seeing them. I may have to take a page from Joe and take some pics during the run. 

5 Mile warm up, then 6x2Min (7:44, 7:34, 7:28, 7:28, 7:31, 7:32) w/3Min recoveries. Although I ran some MP miles on my 15 and 10 mile run, this was the first intervals in 2 years. Despite the lack of speed I was TOAST.

Easy run, cooler morning which is always welcome. Mowing after and yardwork. That should count as a mile of cross training.

Nice cool morning coming in at 57%. Saw a nice deer family out early including a nice buck. They sure look graceful and nice in the field. They only look better in my freezer, but that is another topic. 

AF Marathon is 4 weeks away and now more than ever the bike path is full of those training and those cramming in some desperate miles. Sometimes it is very easy to tell who is who.... Total A for effort though. 

16 Miles in all. Miles 3-4, 7-8, 11-12 and 15-15.5 I ran at MP. Smoothie, shower and Tilapia since and feel pretty good.
