4 miles at 6 pm - out and back on Humphries Blvd. Took it slow since my left leg muscle hurt.

| 6:15 pm - 5 miles at Shelby Farms. It was very hot and humid, so I took the first 1.5 miles slow but then felt good after the warm-up and ran between 8:05 and 8:20 pace for the rest of the run. Felt like I could have gone longer. | Add Comment |

| 7 pm - 6.77 mile hilly course in Cordova. Took it slow because of the hills. My left leg did not hurt until about mile 5.5, and then it was just slightly uncomfortable. Walked another mile after 6.77 with the dogs to cool down and then stretched. | Add Comment |

| 6:30 pm - fit in a short run before going to a family cookout. Left leg hurt as soon as I started running - I can feel the hills and distance from yesterday's run. Limited time necessitated running the hilly course in Cordova again, so I took it very easy and stretched a lot afterward. We'll see how it feels on tomorrow's run. | Add Comment |

MRTC Road Race Series 5 miler (5 Miles) 00:39:42, Place overall: 114 | Running Miles | Swimming Yards | Bike Miles | 5.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 |
| 7 am - Road race series 5 miler in Bartlett. Just after the start, the car keys popped out of the back pocket of my shorts, and I had to circle back around to pick them up. They fell into two pieces, and I carried them by hand the rest of the race but was able to put the two pieces together by mile 1.5, so it was easier to carry, but was a little sweaty. The course winds through a neighborhood, with lots of turns and several small to moderate hills, then enters a municipal park at the end. You can see the finish line on the other side of the park as you run around the baseball fields, which is very motivating and made me run faster at the end. Overall I was happy with my time, which is from my watch - official results are not yet posted. | Comments(2) |

| 6 am Shelby Farms - ran part of the 10K route for the road race series but skipped the very steep hill. Another lap around the lake at the end. Stopped at mile 7 to stretch because the pulled muscle was hurting, then ran an easy .5 to cool down. | Add Comment |

7 am MRTC 5 miler in Bartlett. Ran the trail around the baseball fields to warm up and see how the left leg would feel. Everything seemed good even though it hurt like crazy yesterday at the end of the bike ride.
I've come to really like this race - in past years, it was not exactly my favorite. There are lots of turns in the neighborhoods that we run though, and it seems kind of fun now. At mile 3, my time was 23:00 which was encouraging since it was better than the first 5 miler, so I just kept it up and finished in 38:20, which is not quite a PR. Last year, same race was 38:15. Stretched a lot after the race, especially the hip adductors. | Comments(3) |

6 am - leg weights on the machine, 3 sets of 8 to 10 reps leg pushes and leg raises - hoping to strengthen the left leg. Arm weights also.
7:15 pm - about 3.7 miles at a local high school track. Nice, new track surface - comfortable run. | Add Comment |
