Butters refused to run so I did a 35 minute stair/HIIT until they boys came back to take her.

 

Ran 7.5 angry, hilly miles. Basically just pushed up any hill I saw. Felt good on tired legs

Ran at Solana Beach with Laura, Collin and Simon. 1:38ish. Felt good, ate a lemon in the middle, drank from hoses and beach showers. Ice bathed in the Ocean. Days like that make me glad I live in SD.

Hey! Welcome to fast running blog. Did I read an article about your Impala team in Runner's World? That is great that you have some speedy ladies to train with!

First 5k in almost 2 yrs. Shitty start but overall felt fine. Had waaay too much in the tank at the end but also I think my legs forgot how to run under 6:20 pace. Workin' on that, only up from here. Forgot how much I love shorter races! Got a sweet duck trophy.
