Sunday, June 27th to Saturday, July 3rd

Month of June: 61.8 miles, 12 runs out of 30 days, 5.2 miles/run
Year to end of June: 403.6 miles, 68 runs, 5.9 miles/run
I ran 4 times this week, 21.5 miles.

Sun, 7/27 & Mon, 7/28: Rest days.

On Monday we took Chris's excess stuff to a 5x10 storage unit in Penfield then turned in the Budget truck. We drove it 300 miles at 12.8 mpg. Chris went back to Cleveland to box up more stuff and clean the apartment before returning her keys and coming back to live with me lock, stock and barrel in Rochester.

Tue, 6/29: 6.2 miles, 49:36, 8:00 pace, 64F, sunny, windy, dry, no stops, no pain.

Garmin Connect Activity for Out to Cooper Rd via Winona Blvd

My first run in 5 days. It felt good to get out. The weather turned cooler and drier ... a very comfortable run as a result. I barely got my shirt wet!

Thu, 7/1: 6.2 miles: 48:29, 7:49 pace, 65F, sunny, a bit windy, dry, no stops, no pain.

Garmin Connect Activity for Out to Cooper Rd via Winona Blvd

A nice, harder run than Tuesday. I concentrated on my stride and pushed it a bit more. Sweet!

Fri, 7/2: 4.1 miles, 32:24, 7:54 pace, 74F, sunny, calm, a bit more humid, no stops, no pain.

Garmin Connect Activity for FF Happy Hour run

I headed down to Fleet Feet for the usual Happy Hour run and also pick up my packet for the Firecracker 5 Mile tomorrow. I tried to go slow but my natural pace is around 8 for short distances. A bright side, Chris is coming home from Cleveland. Her apartment is empty. Now we have to somehow go through our respective boxes.

Sat, 7/3: 5 miles, 38:06, 7:37 pace, 78F, sunny, a bit more humid, 3 walking mini stops, no pain.


I headed down to Fairport to run the FireCracker 5 mile. It's always a tough course but I ran a 38:06, 7:37 pace. I was 154th out of 666, overall results are here. I was 10th out of 53 in my age group, age group results here. You will have to take my word for it ... the results go from 9th to 11th but I was 10th.

The rest of the day was a lazy day with CJ and I just lazing around.
