| | 4 easy miles today. Legs are very aware of the killer weekend workout. My body was too - I was exhausted Saturday and Sunday. My wife asked if I had any workouts of 18 miles leading up to my race. I don't want to tell her I have 4 more that are MORE than 18. A 20 this weekend, then a dial back to 10, then a 22, 22, and 24 before tapering. Hmm. Not sure I'll find any pity for being exhausted in future weekends. Hopefully my body will toughen up quick and get me some fast recovery. AP: 8:47 |

| | I was supposed to do 8 this morning but I just couldn't wake myself up. I nearly skipped the run entirely but finally rolled out of bed at 6:15 and was able to get 4 miles in. The same miles as yesterday but the legs felt better. AP: 8:26 |

| | 6 miles early this morning before a big meeting. I love Montana from Spring-Fall as being further North we get lots of light. Winter stinks, but summer rocks. It was light at 5:30 when I started my run and the sun peeked over the horizon about 6 am. And it's only the first week of May. Buh bye reflectors & blinking lights. Ran at a decent clip today, the day off yesterday helped greatly. AP: 8:18

| | 10 miles early before an early morning meeting. Gorgeous this morning. Light enough when I started at 5:25 to not need a light. Had a blinker on my tail just in case, but didn't need it. Sunrise at mile 4 was beautiful as I was heading West and saw the sun hit 3 mountain ranges in the distance. It's a nice stretch of road. I was shooting for an 8:45 pace to keep my exhaustion level low and did well on the 5 miles out but quite a bit quicker on the back. Overall, I liked my pace and felt good. Supposed to do 20 tomorrow. We'll see what the day brings. I'll try and do 10 in the early morning but not sure how that's going to work. AP: 8:34 |

AM- 12 miles before having to take my oldest to a Scout thing then help a neighbor. Hopefully will get 8 more in tonight. AP: 8:28 PM - nada. I had a crazy full day and didn't finish until 10:30 PM. I thought about heading out for a night run, but my wife would've called me nuts and I didn't want that. Plus I was exhausted. Mowed a friends lawn, took a full pickup load to the Goodwill, loaded up the truck at Home Depot with sheetrock, 2X4s, OSB, and insulation, then headed home and moved 1/2 of the garage to the middle to insulate & sheetrock (the other 1/2 is done). Got all of it done that needed it then built shelves 8' long and 8'6" high. It's only taken 4 1/2 yrs to build garage shelves. Have a bunch more shelves to build now. Thanks brother for your help! It's nice having my brother live in town. He's smart.
