Weekend Update

Saturday I ran the greenbelt with Karma around9am. Except for one turn to extend the run a little, I let him choose each and every trail we took. He's an expert in there, and knows where he's going almost all the time, so whatever direction he took on an intersection was the route we ran.

Once we got to the top of the end of Powerline, he veered towards the cars, while I told him to take Bologna loop back to extend the run a little more. He loved it, and kept up real well as I kept picking up the pace. Ran about 6 miles for a little over and hour total time, including his desire to go hang out down by the dam for 5 minutes or so. What a great run!

Sunday, Muz joined me for a loop out at Bastrop State Park. I love that park, but I really struggled through the run as my Cedar allergies were really kicking my butt and depleted all energy. Still a grea 8 mile run over there.

Ended up with 55 for the week, which felt much better than the 45 I ran the week before.

Only 5 days till the big race, of which I'll take Monday and Friday off, but run something on Tue, Wed, and Thursday. Not sure how much, but it looks like roads for tomorrow. Also have a pre-race massage on Tuesday and I'll have Lisa give me her opinion on an issue I've been having with my right knee.

Have a great week, and happy running!
