Group run with The Runs. Ran 25 minutes east along waterfront and then 25 minutes back. Made my negative split so am pleased with that. I think it was all the extra protein the massive amount of gnats provided me with while running, yuck!

Nice evening 12k bike ride along the waterfront. Paul and Judy, I made sure I didn't walk my bike up any hills this time so I hope to get more positive feedback from the both of you, lol!

Did some lengths in the pool with Jenny and my girls. I may have chatted a bit more than I should have and it was Grace who told me to get swimming. I guess she was filling in for Paul last night, lol.

Was at the track and did not enjoy it at all. First time I have ranked intensity as a 5. Had to do six sets of 2 and a half laps aiming at six minutes per kilometer. Marc and I did it together but it was super hard and could only do 3 sets at this pace. Then increased our time to seven minutes. I realized I am not a six minute girl, I am more comfortable at the 7 or even 7 minutes and 30 seconds kind of girl. Would not have been able to do as well as I did if it weren't for you Marc, so thank you! Almost forgot to mention, I hate running in the heat!!!

C • looking good 3

Dear Altona, I took you on eight times and won each and every hill repeat! It was really hard for me though, you are one tough son of a gun. Really proud of myself that I didn't stop once to take a break, only at the top and bottom. So much for easing slowly back into our routine after a week of rest and recovery.

C • Easing?? 2

Another wonderful trail run today! Fawn did awesome. Would have been a shorter run/walk but two people got lost some how so had to back track up some hills and trails to find them. Thank goodness it was a nice day. I think all summer runs should be in the trails and then end up in the river with some cold beverages.

C • Where'd you go? 2
