Moving made running difficult during the past week, but tapering at this point is to be expected.

Weekly recap:
  • Saturday: 21 miles from the Dowd, all solo. I did my cross-Providence 13+ miler first, followed by the Freedom Park hill 7+ miler.
  • Monday: 2.5 miles (or whatever I do in 20 minutes) on a treadmill at the Siskey YMCA.
  • Wednesday: 10 miles from the Dowd in the morning, solo.
  • Thursday: 7.5 miles from the Dowd in the morning, solo.

A little over 40 miles for the week. Not bad considering my scheduling difficulties. Current forecast for Portland weather looks to be cool and clear. I’ll be happy enough just with cool.

This morning I ran 8+ from the Dowd at a reasonably brisk pace by myself, then met Udit for the Hit the Brixx 5k. With a little help from my “professional” pacing services, he was able to cut his personal best down from a 31+ minute 5k to under 29 minutes. Congratulations Udit! Susi and Jeri ran the 10k and finished well, and Jeri’s sister April joined them for a nice cool-down 5k. I hear Mark and Barb were also in the 10k, but I didn’t see them.
