AM - 3 miles with Finn before church to give him some exercise.  Plan to do a longer run on the treadmill this afternoon.  
 

PM - 12 miles on the treadmill.  HR training is progressing nicely.  Just need some cooler weather outside now.  

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and the dogs on the new trail.  Off trail weeds and grasses were nearly waist-high in spots - checked for ticks after the run.  All good though.  

AM - 7.25 miles with Dan and Finn from Dan's house up Summit and Wood road.  Same route as last Saturday - without really trying, the pace was faster by 15 seconds per mile, and the avg HR was exactly the same - and the other variables impacting HR (weather and time of day, nutrition) were almost identical.  

PM - 2 easy miles on the treadmill to add some volume and work on base fitness 

AM - 4 miles with Dan and Finn in the neighborhood in a light rain/mist.   He had to make it short due to some early appointments.

PM - 4 miles on the treadmill late afternoon; after a mile warm-up - I ran at around 7:30 pace - roughly a goal marathon pace for now.  Kept the HR in checck; it only crept to the low to mid 140's in the last mile.

AM - 5 with Dan and Finn on the Milton trail.   Heading to Va Beach later this morning for a long weekend to visit Tracy's brother and his family.  

AM - 8.25 miles from my brother in law's house in Virginia.  He lives in a golf course community away from the beach and the surrounding area is agricultural with a few new subdivisions here and there.  I found one last time I was here with a big lake and a walking path - so that's where I ran again today.  Decent run.   Day 900 of my running streak.  

AM - 7 miles on the golf course in Va Beach in a light rain.  Very humid and heavy air this morning.
