6 Miler

I ran up Brooks Dr. past Dry Hill Ski area. I took a right onto Swan Road and ran up the two HUGE hills. I continued past Dry Hill Prison and turned onto Dry Hill Road. I ran the rest of the way and finished at my house. The hills wore me out.

7 miles (9's)

Dave and I started at the high school , running up Gotham street to Rt. 12. We ran up and down Crane Lane (a pretty good hill) and headed for State Street. We worked our way back to the high school in good shape.

20 Miler(9's)

Today Eric H. and I ran a nice easy 20 miles out to Browville, into Watertown and out to my house. We did the last 2 Miles up Washington Street hill. I took it easy during the run, but had some energy left to run hard up the hill. we finished it in 3 Hrs. That includes time wasted to stretch, pee, wait to cross for traffic, and stop for a dog. That is a 9 minute pace. I think for the marathon I might be able to run a 8 or 8:30 pace.

11 Miles (green brooks)

Today I ran by myself to see if my leg would hurt. I was afraid that I would end up running fewer miles. However, my calf was fine and I ran the whole 11 miles stopping three times to stretch.

8 Miles (Green Brooks)

After a couple days rest I gave it a go. I ran 8 miles and my calf didn't start hurting until about mile 4. I was going to do 10, but I cut it short. It wasn't too bad, but still sore. I will either run 3 tomorrow or ride the bike.

18 Miler(9's)

Eric and I ran 18 miles today. Dave started with us but only wanted to do 10. So he didn't run the whole route with us. Our pace was about 8:40. I think we started out to fast. Dave only did 10 so he was at about a 7:30 pace. We have to work on that. We were dead at the end.
