AM- 10

Lunch- 10 more.  Hard rain at the start, then drizzled out.  It's nice when Jim is around cause he is the most consistent one to run over an hour with me most days.  Nice to have company.

Lunch- 7 in the rain.  Got some niggles now- left shin and both arches.  Was going to do high mileage this week then lower next, but might switch.

PM- PM with Justin, who was pushing the pace sometimes.  2:03, 12 miles.  Cloudy and thunder in the distance.  Shin and arches are worse.

Lunch- ran 2, then bike.  Shin and feet still hurt- definitely ramping it way down this week compared to the original plan.  Which is just fine.

Lunch- easy xt.  Thinking of running tomorrow to test everything out.  I needed a down week, anyways, so am not at all worried about my lack of miles the past few days.  Kind of nice to sleep in- didn't get out of bed till 7:30 today (2 hrs later than usual), and I left work right at 5 pm.  The extra family time is great since they are leaving Sunday morning for our month long trip, leaving me a bachelor.

AM- back on the run.  10 miles around home, mainly circling the soccer complex where they are having a huge, 200 team tournament.  Lots of good soccer players.  Felt much better.  Hokas sure are nice on your legs when they're feeling beat up.  Probably gonna wear them a lot this week, along with my brand new Pearl Izumi trail shoes.
