6 miles outside before the girls woke up. 48:06 overall time, 8:01 pace.

Came home and got Aubrey ready for school and then ran another 5k on the treadmill while Cam took her. Treadmill got unplugged with less than half a mile to go, so no stats.

This workout felt like a walk in the park compared to Saturday's race. Which makes me confident that Saturday was just a rough day.

2 mile warmup. 3x3 mile @6:31 pace with 5 min in between each set. 2+ mile cooldown. Felt great today and easily made it through all three sets. Last night it seemed like such a daunting workout, but glad it gave me the confidence boost I needed.

Ran on the Honolulu Marathon course. Overall stats: 1:48:59 overall time, 15.00 miles in 7:15 pace.

Upper fix in the afternoon. 

Ohio 5K. 25:11 overall time, 8:07 pace.

2.0 miles South Carolina 5K. 16:14 overall time, 8:04 pace.

Ran out of time so walked/jogged Aubrey to school and then finished my 3 mile loop. Tried to take today easy and enjoy the recovery day.

2 mile warmup. 7x800 @5:50 pace (2:55) with 2:30 rest jog. Half mile cooldown on treadmill and then walked/jogged Aubrey to school pushing double stroller and then back home.

Total Treadmill time: 8.00 miles in 58:54. 7:21 overall pace. +1.5 miles to school and back for cooldown

easy 4.5 miles on treadmill on -3% decline. "Downhill run". 34:35 overall time, 7:41 pace.

3 easy miles pushing double stroller after dropping Aubrey off.

Got up and started around 5:45, ran just over 7 miles, and then grabbed Cam and the girls and jogged to the Stake 3 mile fun run. Ran the race pushing Ada in the stroller and was third overall in 20:30. Then just ran around grabbing water/gartorade wherever I could. Because of the 'race' and stopping and chatting with friends the overall run took longer than I wanted but I eventually got all 20 in. Overall time: 2:43:47 overall pace: 8:11.

Longest mileage week in a long time. If I count the 3 walks I went on with my girls I could say I did over 70. But I guess we will just leave it at 69.
