<p>Morning kickstars.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>10 miles along the bay front this morning.  93 heat index at 6 a.m. this morning.  jtwili    Watch battery wasn't charged enough and it gave up at mile 1.   So it was untimed  which is just fine.   Only ran 20 miles this week in 3 runs.  Can't remember when I've run so little in a week or even for a month.  Have to start getting back into the groove next week.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Running a 4 mile race Monday but am just going to run it based on how I feel.  I have lost fitness over the last 6 weeks due to this heat and training.  So I'm not ready to race it.  I'm going to run slow enough to enjoy it and run with a different crowd.</p>

<p>Mike sorry to hear about your car.  You need to take it back and tell them it's a lemon and get another.  Change your luck?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What's up all?</p>

<p>Happy Feat, I like that hat too! All we sell in the store are the Nike ones, but it looks like the Brooks' styling might be superior. I'll mention it to my manager...</p>

<p>Johnny, thanks for the heads' up with that article! I'm an hour and a half north of that area, so I doubt the escapee would get that far...</p>

<p>13 miles yesterday, which puts me at 36.25 miles for the week. I might go out today and round up to 40, just because. Or maybe I'll just rest. :)</p>

<p>Interesting musings there, KS. So what type was I today? After sleeping late this morning, I did finally get out this afternoon. I walked 1.4 miles to my friend's house, ran 4 recovery-paced miles with her while we chatted and caught up over the past month's events, then walked 1.4 miles home. I think because I sandwiched the run between the two walks, my legs felt good throughout the run. I think the extra sleep helped too.</p>

<p>Tomorrow MrOM is running in a local 5k and I'm looking forward to watching and cheering him on. I'm very happy not to be having any race-induced stresses these days. In fact, aside from the two long runs I've done with MrOM yesterday and two weeks ago, I haven't even wanted to run with anyone else, lest the distraction of company would keep me from being able to fully listen to my body as I run. Running with my friend today, I had to remind her at least twice to keep the pace nice and slow. I suppose that regardless of what type running I am, I know how to be happy in my own skin. :)</p>
