10 Miles 1:26:33
7:30 am) 60's Humid!
Ran with Scott D, Scott L and Dan M. today. We ran the single track
trail at the camp. I felt good today. I was a bit concerned going
into this run. My calf was bothering me on my run Saturday and
still felt sore yesterday. I took off yesterday to give it a rest.
It was fine no pain at all.
Last night had a good time at Celebrate De Pere. Good music and a
nice firework show. Lots of people I would say in the thousands.
I had never been before so I'm glad I went and checked it out.
Hung out with Dan M and his family and Scott L.

Fox River Trail
14.50 Miles 1:38:31 6:48 average per mile
6:35 am) upper 50's Sunny
Plan was to join the 6:00 group at Mountain Bay Trail. I set the
alarm clock for the wrong time. So I ran down to Voyager Park and
joined the 7:00 group. Ran with Dave and Bob. Bob and I ran the
last 3 miles at a pretty fast pace.

Fox River Trail
8 Miles 54:53 6:51 average per mile
6:00 pm) Warm. Rained last 4 miles.
Wanted to do some track work tonight but the track was locked up.
I did 2 800's on the trail 2:53 & 2:45. I need to work on more track
work. I plan on doing it once a week. I was going to do 4 800's
tonight but with the rain it was causing my Garmin to act up. I was
in the middle of my 3rd 800 and it acted up. So next Wednesday
or Thursday I will do probably 6 800's. I would like to run these
at 2:45.

7 Miles 47:35 6:47 average per mile
11:30 pm) 83 degrees HOT!
It was a warm run today. I'm not used to this yet. I did feel
prerty good though considering yesterdays long run. Ny legs
were a little tired but not bad ar all. I wore compression
sleeves cep on my calves yesterday for the first time and I think
they really helped.
60.45 Miles for the week on 5 runs.

Greenbush Ice Age Trail
Saturday 5/22/2010
31 Miles 4:30:17 8:43 average per mile
9:00 am) 60-70's
Drove down to Greenbush to do my long run. I wanted to get
running by 8:30 at the latest but got a bit lost. I started
out with a 7 mile out and back for 14 miles. I made my first
mistake in this stretch not enough fluids. I had my bottle
but was only 16 oz. and I had to conserve it to make it last.
It was not very warm so that helped. I then went back to the
car and filled it up. I headed out in the other direction
on the Ice Age Trail. This would be 8.5 miles each way for
17 miles. I was not too nervous about my water situation this
time because I knew there was a water pump at Butler Lake.
This was very good because when I got to the water pump I
couldn't drink enough. I was so thirsty I had become very
dehydrated. I was at around my 23 or so and still had 8+ mile
to get back to my car. I was not looking forward to that.
I wanted to quit but had to get back to my car. I struggled
to finish this run. I was walking all the hills and my miles
were around 9-10 minute pace and that was all I could do to
run that fast. I wanted to walk all of the last 8 miles but
knew I would not have enough water to make it if I walked it.
As it was I ran out of water. I also should have had more
food. I think I had only 3 gels total.
So I hoped this run would give me some confidence for the 100k
I have planned it 2 weeks but it did the opposite. I'm pretty
sure I will not do the 100k. I just don't feel comfortable
doing it at this point. I feel my fitness is not where it needs
to be. When I did the 50 mile run a couple weeks ago I struggled
at mile 40. I don't think it would be smart to go and run and
only to struggle again and maybe for 20+ miles or more. I have
a 50 mile run planned for July I should just focus on that and
be ready for it. I might even do just the 50k if I don't feel
confident for that one. So I do have a new plan for this month
a road marathon. I think I might be in good enough shape for
a fast marathon. I'm thinking Grandma's June 19 in Duluth MN.
It will depend on the weather though it usually is either nice
or hot. Maybe this year will be a nice year. Plus some of my
friends are doing it so would be kind of fun to go with them.
I ran Grandma's back in 2005 so it's been 5 years I think I can
beat my time from then 3:18.
