Monday: 11
Depressing rainy Monday where I spent the first of five consecutive days in 9-hour meetings. Got home from work to see a package from Alaska. My mood changed!
AM: 6 solo on local roads. BI Tri race was 2 days ago, but somehow the legs are still not feeling 100%.
PM: 5 with Matthew after dinner. Unfortunately, right after dinner, and Mexican at that. It didn't go well. No further info.
Tuesday: 15
AM: 9 mile workout at Ninigret with Tommy and Matthew. 1-minute hard, 1-minute easy. The workout and miles went by quickly.
PM: 6 miles at Stonington Fun Run. Started off easy with Clay Howland, finished hard with Matthew Ridley.
Wednesday: 11
AM: 8 miles solo 'round the pond in a delightful 57 degrees.
PM: 3 miles at penultimate Westerly Fun Run. Ran an average 5:43 pace! Super happy with this run. Gave me a lot of confidence.
Thursday: 6
Early B-game run with Matthew. From the picnic area up to the tower and campground trails. With the deerflies on the wane, it will be good to get back out here.
Friday: 7
Quonochontaug afternoon run with Matthew. Other than running on sloped sand on the beach, it was all relaxing and enjoyable.
Saturday: 5
Trail run from Wahaneeta up through Woody Hill with Jonathan and Tommy. Good easy-paced conversational run before meeting up with Beth to work in Wahaneeta to get ready for next weekend's trail race.
Sunday: 11
Bobby Doyle Summer Classic. Stoked with this one! Race report to follow.
Weekly mileage: 67
Weekly synopsis: Super happy with this week, both from a mileage standpoint and race performance.
Weekly highlights:
Hands-down, the Bobby Doyle race and my time were the highlights of the week for me.
Running at 5:43 at the Fun Runs, for an 18:25, my fastest time in two years!

| Hand written note from the AMR (Alaska Mens Run) RD. How cool is that? Seems to harken back to a different era, and nice to see that politeness is not dead. |
