7 miles, mostly trail, on a hilly route through Balboa Park (w/ Liz). That's three runs this week with company!

AM - Easy run to Balboa Park and down museum row. This is a hilly route with all different types of hills - from short and steep to long and steady. At times, I found myself lazily bouncing up hills using only my quads. Trying to correct myself, even on easy runs, to use the glutes, arms, and have proper form/posture. Good habits! If I keep running this route weekly, I'll be ready for any hill the AFC Half course throws at me.

PM - power yoga. This is a free class offered at my gym for all levels. I wish there was an advanced class, but at least the basic class is . . . amusing.

Track club workout at Balboa Park. 5 x 800s at 5K pace + 10 strides.

Interval times were 3:08, 3:03, 3:05, 3:06, and 3:04. But these are in a makeshift loop in the grass, ranging from 0.5 - 0.52 miles on my Garmin. But I guess this is more or less accurate. Rest intervals of 2:00 or less.

I'm very excited to have met another potential running partner. She ran in college and is probably a little bit faster than me even!

First day off of exercising since June 2, the day after half marathon. Can't say it was planned. Got busy and work and just plain ran out of time. But I was overdue for a complete reset day.

After work run - 3 laps on Harbor Island. After a long warmup where I tried to let go of all the work stress I am experienceing this week, I decided to do a moderate-effort run. 5 miles at about 7:15. Having a tough time at work this week, so wanted to balance getting in a threshold-type workout with not overdoing it because I am under a lot of extra stress.

Easy run with SD Track club in Mission Trails Regional Park. This is the largest municiple park in California. San Diego's highest peak is there - Cowels mountain at 1600 feet. But we didn't run that trail. The park has a rugged, rocky landscape with lots of canyons and hills. You can feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, but you are actually in the middle of suburbia.
