Ran 6 miles at 7:51 pace.  I can feel my "easy" pace is getting faster and faster.  

My calves are still sore from the Saturday run.  They don't hurt but 12 miles might be near the limit with the Altras.

10 miles with Andrea this morning.  I should have taken my gloves.  We went down to the Jordan Parkway Trail and it was cold down there.  We did a workout 5k in 20:59 and it felt really good.  I've definitely never run 5k that fast.  Maybe sometime I'll try out a 5k race.

Shoe testing with Andrea and Shannon. I don't think I'm very discerning when it comes to shoes. It's hard for me to tell whether I like or dislike a shoe unless it irritates my foot in some way.

I got to run a few miles at sea level because I was in southern California for a trip. I even got to go down on the beach a little. Everything felt good. I ran a little slow because there were a lot of hills and I wasn't very familiar with the area.

Ran into my neighbor and we stayed together for all but the last 2 miles.  Did a fast finish: 6:51 and 7:00.  This was a good week.  A few more miles than I was planning on but I feel fine.  Just need to make sure I don't go over too often.
