Easy/Aerobic Run. Solo @ Z. Not good today. No Energy. Queasy after mile 3, dizzy after mile 5. Run/Walk after mile 4. Made it back to car for more hydration, then ....because I was a little dizzy, started out power walking and just stayed with it to get my 3 hours in. Felt like I had a rock in my right shoe on the ball of my right foot, so stopped at NE shelter on the East side, no rock. Stopped at car to change shoes/socks. Got about 10 minutes on west side and started to realize it was that start of blister as it also started on my left foot. Hobbled back to car but got full loop in for my 3 hours. We all have those days.

As bad as the Usual Suspects were going out, I think the heat coming back was worse. Had to walk twice in one mile and with the Bob coming up I though I was toast. But there was a nice breeze coming off the river and that picked me up.

Ok showing...not great but not bad. Led from the start in the 50+ heat and didn't look at my watch and didn't look back but I knew I was being chased. Brett D. about 10 seconds back. Hamstrings continue to give me trouble and were really sore later in the day. I suppose I need to do something about that. 4:36 age-graded. Meh. Officially 5:26.49

Planned rest day, but likely couldn't have run anyway. Big right toe was swollen to twice its size and very black and blue after the drive to Maine last night. Fortunately, it felt much better today walking around, even though there's still a lot of blood pooled in the skin surfaces of that toe. I've got pretty much full range of motion back already too. Also, don't think I broke anything, so hopefully just another off day tomorrow and I'll be ready to get back at it. This was just a super unlucky turn of events. Immediately before falling yesterday, I was thinking this was the best I've felt mentally and physically running-wise in 6 years or so. Oh well. Minor speed bump in the grand scheme of things!

Good controlled tempo run. I could have run more at same pace.

Had 2 Gu's and lots of water at Y, but melted down about halfway home. Walked for a few min and then was fine rest of way home. Been a long time since I've drunk this much water in a day.

Went out too fast and it was too warm for sub5. Got passed at about the half mark, but passed him back in the last quarter. I was expecting response, but he didn't have one. Broke the tape for Masters state title.

(Estimated miles in a Garmin free zone). Glad I got it done early!

Good luck today, racers!

New mug is from the HuHot Half on the Fourth race last weekend in Colorado Springs. Just had a tremendous amount of fun enjoying the race, not worrying about mile splits, pace, or finishing time--THIS time around... The back of the singlet I'm wearing says "Heartbreak Hill Running Company", which is a running store in Newton, MA on the crest of (you guessed it) "Heartbreak Hill", mile 21 on the Boston Marathon course. I got the singlet the day after the 2014 Boston race, and the colors came in handy for the red, white and blue theme of the day :)

Song of the day: "Dog Days are Over" by Florence and the Machine. I love the line "You can't carry it with you if you want to survive", and use it as a metaphor for leaving behind one's bad habits, baggage and negativity.

Felt good until the last couple miles. Humidity definitely took a toll. My shoes were full of sweat by mile 7. I pretty much looked like I just climbed out of a pool for the majority of the run. Saw a few people out running including one guy in the most recent Lincoln Marathon shirt and another in a really old cotton Lincoln shirt.

Did my good deeds for the day. Out and back on a street in Sioux Falls. Coming back last three entrance to a golf course there was a vehicle parked by the entrance not there on the way out. Tied to the undercarriage, in the sun, on the asphalt parking lot was a small terrier. Jerk left it tired to the vehicle while he enjoyed a nice round of golf. Made a call when I got back to the hotel to the humane society. Not the way you treat a dog.
