Gonna Get Goofy

Did a quick run this morning since we fly home this afternoon.  Probably shouldn't have stayed up half the night reading The Maze Runner.

I maintained a good pace and felt strong until the turnaround point.  At that point I felt like I slammed into a wall. It was a death run back to the hotel.  Interestingly enough - I was almost on the same pace as on the first half of the run, even with the last half being net uphill.  I think the long run from last night and the humidity were getting to me (and lack of sleep).  My clothes were drenched before I had even run 2 miles.

10 miles along the freeway trails (found where the one heading north ends) in the rain. Kept my pace under 11:45 per mile.

I had great plans for speedwork this week at lower elevation, but when we got off the plane in Michigan this afternoon we were slammed with 92 degree heat and high humidity.

Tonight I ran 8.5 miles on the trails in my new crocs.  Other than needing to get used to little pebbles creeping in, they were nice and comfortable.

Finished up with 45 minutes on the stationary bike in the hotel fitness center.
