7/2 - 7/8

Tuesday: Morning run in Maudslay with Matt Germain. 45 minutes of steady trail treading.
Wednesday: 61 minutes on trail in the early AM. Moving slow, which I'm sure the dear flies appreciated...
Thursday: 51 minutes easy on the roads in the early AM.
Friday: 65 minutes steady on the roads late evening.
Saturday: Off. Notable: I learned to back flip off the end of a boat at Merry Meeting lake in New Durham. Landed it on the third attempt. A fun Saturday on the lake with friends!
Sunday: Off. Lots of core in the evening.
Monday: Stopped by Sam's Outfitters in south Keene to gear up for the upcoming trip to the Adirondacks. New/first-ever sleeping bag, sleeping pad, a few random smaller purchases. I decided to make the most of the drive and hit mount Monadnock and back via the Dublin trail. The Dublin trail is probably the most direct (read: steepest) route up and maintaining a running motion is basically impossible in a couple spots. Almost nobody on the mountain which was nice so I didn't have to gasp "hello" as I drove madly upward. Up in 34 minutes, down in 34 minutes for a total of 68. I couldn't believe I didn't come down faster than I went up. Actually, I felt more positive about the climb after descending. I forget exactly what my best is for this climb though I think it might be a hair under half an hour.
