THP toward ant hills 3.01 mi 00:26 08:47 pace
Plan was to w/u for 1 mi, 1 pick up pace, 1 c/d. Since dh was out of town, I had to do this at 10:00 when my kids were in summer school. Ran some of it on the trails. Still tough in the 85 temps.

Thanks Jay, but this wasn't exactly a brick since the run was in the AM and the biking was in the evening.

OK, I've missed what has been going on but seeing words like orthotics, heel drops makes me think some calf/Achilles issues? Hope it gets better. Have a lot of experience dealing with those, drop me a note if you ever need to vent or have questions.

"3 mi easy" 3.01 mi 00:28 09:12 pace
Just another 3 easy run from my coach this morning. Afterwords, I met up w/ my husband who was on his last mile of his walk. Also, last PT apt and they let me run on the TM for 7 min. Felt good.

The extra "2R" is just back to the starting side. I think 47 miles total. A friend was thinking of putting together a group to do it this fall & invited me, but I'm too slow. I wasn't familiar with Table Mountain - beautiful area. What about Mt Hood? Did you want a race? What time of year?

Yep, I was thinking of takin the van back to the start (thus avoiding the extra miles). Mt Hood is a great option too. Not looking for a race just a good, technical course. The airline has me using it up by Jan 29. So from Aug to Jan sometime. Hope to be somewhat close to an airport so we don't waist too much time driving.
