Ran 5.25 miles @ the gym.

Ran just under 3 miles to a trail's race.  Ran the trail 5k in 19:59 (walked the steep hill in the middle for 20 seconds to catch breath), and then ran home with my 2 oldest.  All 6 of my girls placed- the oldest 2 ran the 5k in 22:10 and 22:42- both pr's for this particular course (my pr is 19:09). 

Overall, felt good about the day, running 13.85 miles and doing ok on a day I felt incredibly sluggish.

Jogged down to Whites Woods and ran the same road race I just did on Thursday.  Cut my time by 20 seconds- 5k in 19:40.  Ran back home for 9 miles total.  May go out for an early evening run.  Might put me in position for a 300 mile month. 

Broke out a new pair of shoes and ran 6.4 miles w/1.4 in the middle @ 7min pace.
