running update (July)

Tues 7/6 - I didn't run at all when we were in Appleton for the 4th of July, so this was my first run in nearly a week. This heat and humidity is killing me!! And, I'm started to get really anxious about the mara.
Time: 26 min
Distance: 2.18 mi
Avg Speed: 5.03 mph
Cumulative distance: 159.89 mi

Fri 7/16 - So, I've apparently been taking a break from running (which does not bode well for the mara!), although in my defense I have been very active in the last 10 days (cf: last weekend's kayaking trip). But I did get out again today, and this time it actually felt GOOD to run. It was a bit crazy - I enjoyed almost the entire time!
In other news, I found out today that I made the cut into the TC 10-mile on Oct 3. Exciting! Hopefully that will help me redeem myself after what I'm sure will be a dismal mara on August 7.
Time: 25:30 min
Distance: 2.18 mi
Avg Speed: 5.08 mph
Cumulative distance: 162.07 mi

Wed 7/21 - Yeah, so my third run for the month and it's the 21st. Not good. But at least the run was good. My friend Jessica and I did the Torchlight 5K, which (other than the heat and humidity) was a great race!
Time: 37-ish min
Distance: 3.1 mi
Avg Speed: 5-ish mph
Cumulative distance: 165.17 mi

Sat 7/24 - Amanda and I ran 7.4 miles today! (That's a record for me!)
Time: 90 min
Distance: 7.4 mi
Avg Speed: 5-ish mph
Cumulative distance: 172.57 mi

Tues 7/27 - Man, this summer humidity is just killer.
Time: 47 min
Distance: 3.71 mi
Avg Speed: 4.74 mph
Cumulative distance: 176.28 mi

Wed 7/28 - Another run. (Perhaps the lack of color commentary is a good thing?)
Time: 26 min
Distance: 2.16 mi
Avg Speed: 4.98 mph
Cumulative distance: 178.44 mi

Fri 7/30 - Our last long run before the mara!
Time: 120 min
Distance: 10 mi
Avg Speed: 5 mph
Cumulative distance: 188.44 mi
