Nothing yet for me today. May run tonight after sundown. Predicting 100 degrees and 109 index today. Just the way Tom likes it. 
Nice long run this weekend HappyFeat!
 
DW ran 1.3 miles to the pool, swam, and 1.3 miles back this morning to test her leg injury. Now all I have to do is keep her from jumping back into running all at once. 
Have resigned myself, I think, to just running my Bar Harbor marathon in Oct as this summer's training just has been brutal and find myself mentally and physically out of racing shape. 
My trainiing partner ran the tunnel marathon in Washington St. this past weekend in 3:10 and just has had a great time out there. Plus he won his age group and met some of my virtual friends who live in that part of the pnw. Seemed to be a lot of pics of him and his dw in wineries and breweries.

FO - going to Florida to race or vacation or both? Have fun.
 
What's up kickstars?

Hi TW, KS, and Heme
 
The plan was to run 8 miles tonight but I felt kind of crappy tired right from the start. So of course I took off to find every big hill in town to run starting with
the state park. It was also 80° and 80% humidity with absolutely no breeze. I huffed and puffed through 1,150 ft of uphills and could feel it in my calves.
When I got close to home I decided another mile wouldn't do me any good so I ended up with 6.84 miles in 53:46 (7:51 pace). It felt much harder.
