Yoohoo, first test! Woohoo, first rest!

Mon, Aug 13: 2 mi to DR's house. 4 mi there (started with Ben, lost him, ran with Lucy, eventually caught up to DR, whose 30:01 today will be likely smashed in coming weeks. ride back following search.
Tues, Aug 14: rest
Wed, Aug 15: missed East Nasty in the p.m. (studying : o ), but got in a 2.5 miles in the a.m. checking to see if anyone from the Slytherin club was at the track. No one was, but a good wakeup run!
Thurs, Aug 16: Ran to track (1 mile), then 1k warmup on track, then 6 x 1km intervals with DR club. Ran between Steve/DR. Initially aimed for 4:15 (6:58 mi), but ended up with 4:08, 4:03, 3:51 (Steve!), 4:02, 4:06???, 4:02. Then a 74s "all-out" 400m. I think I said "I'm so excited" about a million times afterwards. ; p
Friday, Aug 17: Yesterday DR said "honor code" we had to run 3-5 miles recovery, but I ended up thrifting after the test, and then going on a fantastic date. Yeeks! I think I'm obligated to report myself.
Sat, Aug 18: 9 miles a.m. with Amy. ~98 minutes? Then PANCAKE PANTRY!

Mon, Aug 6: cookies and ice cream all day. Gross! But I ate them. Medical school is unusually unhealthy in its opportunities. Our big-little ceremony took us late, right into the time for running club, so I ran ~ 4 miles on my own, going for an overall light tempo. (Wanted to feel fast!)
Tues, Aug 7: rest? volunteered at Shade Tree.
Wed, Aug 8: Ran in the a.m. with padawan Molena. ~ 2 mi? including 5x accelerations.
Thurs, Aug 9: Ran Murphy to the park, but didn't go all the way around the golf course (I didn't know entirely where I was going). 6 mi, the last half of it at 9:10 - 9:15 pace. Easy/medium. "the Hammer" (aah, my allergic/asthmatic throat!) hit at the beginning, but I got more comfortable towards the end.
Fri, Aug 10: a.m. run with both padawans! 2.7 mi, including ~ 4 walking breaks.
Sat, Aug 11: Another 7 mi (Red, White) trail run in the park with Cam and Keaton. While I kept them in sight for 50 minutes last run, I lost them quite early on (~20 min?) on this run, and I got the feeling they went easy on me. They had to wait for me a few times. At one point I was trying to keep up the pace while listening to them talk about studying habits. : ) And somehow I missed the trailhead and ended up running an extra 1/2 - 1 mile. Aaah!
Sun, Aug 12: a.m. run with the padawans scheduled! : D UPDATE: ...and a good 3 mi through Belmont it was.

Mon, July 30: woke up late from nap, so got to running club late (still ran there). Ran 3 mi loop with Victoria (we missed the pack!) and then ran back with Kensie. 7 mi total.
Tues, July 31: rest
Wed, Aug 1: rest. angsty + storms.
Thurs, Aug 2: Ran 3.6 mi around Vandy. Felt : )!
Fri, Aug 3: ran/walk 2 mi in the a.m. with Molina and Layla. But I forgot the turn so we didn't do the whole planned route. Then I did the 2.6 mi loop by myself so I could show it to them the next time!
Sat, Aug 4: ran 7 mi in PW park (red + white) with Cam and Keaton. They're both quite fit! I stayed in sight (hard! high tempo, and Keaton shot ahead up the hills : ) until the last 2 mi, and then I dropped and slowed down a lot (and then got back to a reasonable, if not as fast as before, pace)
Sun, Aug 5: Glad to wake up (~ 6:30am). Terrible hangover. 3 mi around the neighborhoods to feel a little better. Could have gone longer np! But it was spur of the moment. Morning was difficult, but I think the afternoon can be productive. P.M. run with layla, molina?
Weekly total: 25.2 mi run

Sat, Jul 28: 4 mi race in Goodlettsville with Amy, Gary, Ivan, Ben. 29:45-29:50! 1st in age/gender group, 8th for females, but beaten by several 14-year-olds. 7:30 pace. The whole time (once I could tell my pace from the numbers I was thinking, "I think Stephanie says Clara  can run 7:30 pace forever" ;p couldn't fall asleep because my classmates were being social outside.
Sun, Jul 29: rest, and eat too much. Nap turned into a "bad trip-"like nightmare. Aaah!
