Ran 3 miles down to White's Woods race course.  Ran the 5k in 2 pieces- 1/2 way in 9:15, 2-minute break and then finished in 19:09.  Jogged 3 home for 9.1 total. 

Another 7 miles w/2 of my little ones alongside on their bikes- gets me up over the 300 mile hump for the month.

Ran 7 miles in GA outside the hotel.  My wife joined me for 5 and then I picked up the pace for 1.5 miles before being chased down by a little dog.  My wife saw the whole thing and was dying laughing when she saw me duck into the bushes and disappear with this little dog circling round.  Everything ended up ok, pride a little shot though- 7 miles total for the morning. 

5 miles on the beach.
