Furthest I've run in one stretch in many moons. Legs didn't feel good at all, but I powered through, and glad I did. Nice weather out, but still drenched in sweat at the end.

Went to bed late, slept in a bit, and only had time for a couple miles from home. Felt decent. Can't wait for legs to feel great again. High humidity (71%), which is odd for us.

3 miles from home this morning. My first mile pace is so slow, it's odd. Might be a while until that declines since I incline quite a bit during mile 1, but it never bothered me in the past after many years of getting used to it. I plan to do Boot Camp on Wednesdays, including today.

Noon Boot Camp. Copious amounts of sweat. We determined a new measurement of effort: shimmery shins. They were today.

5 miles backpacking with my 12 yr old daughter to Lost Lake. She had a 15 pound pack; mine was more like 50, but I didn't weight it as I didn't want to know. And I carried hers for 2 of the 5 miles. But we had a blast, and no cell service = bliss.

5 miles on the return backpacking trip. 5 miles downhill is much easier, and the packs were a bit lighter. Great weather, fun times.
