Week #19

5/20: 7 miles / 7:20 pace - on the rail trail in Epping with JVG. 83 degrees, moderately humid made for the first real warm run of the year. I definitely got a little dehydrated and overheated in the last 20 minutes and struggled to get home BUT this was a great start to the week! Great company per usual. Heel was tight but not painful to start and way less stiff in the evening than usual so I think things are sorting themselves out.

5/21: 5.32 miles / 8:07 pace - out and back in the Meadows, 25:00 out, 23:13 back. Cool and very blustery. Kept things easy which has been hard for me to do... especially since being out of shape makes most paces feel at least a little rough. Kept an eye out for widow-makers.

5/22: rest day. Just trying to be smart, which was extra challenging because it was absolutely PERFECT out. Took Connor for a 1.5 mi hike in the Meadows. He snored the entire time.

5/23: 5.6 miles to spruce hole and back in College Woods. Felt alright. Hoped I'd have felt a little stronger after a rest day.

5/24: 4.6 miles in the Meadows targeting single-track. Felt pretty sluggish.

5/25: 8.3 miles completing the full Sweet Trail out and back with Drew and Max. This was a great run.

5/26: Off - wedding weekend in Maine.

Summary: Good start to the week with some great running. The weekend was a bit of a lost cause with learning how to travel with an infant and arriving just an hour before the wedding festivities began. This coming week is going to be challenging with another wedding, this time in which I'm a groomsman with festivities starting on Friday and carrying through the weekend. Oy!
