Next race: Athens Half Marathon- Sunday, October 21st. Short-Term Running Goals: I would love to improve my times without stressing too much on race day. I would like to become a fitter and stronger runner.

(better than last year) Long-Term Running Goals: It would be pretty awesome to qualify for Boston, and I am now closer than I was before, but I still have to knock just over 25 minutes off my time. Personal: I am married, no kids, two dogs. I am a schoolteacher who moved in June 2009 from Florida to Georgia.

| After sleeping in and walking the dogs, I was out the door. Unfortunately, it was already after 9:30 and the sun was out. I actually felt alright for the first 2-3 miles, although my time did not reflect it. After that point, the heat was starting to take effect. I was happy that I was able to get to the 7 mile mark. |

| By the time I woke up from sleeping in and walked the dogs, it was already after 9:00am, which meant it was warm outside. I could have gone to the gym, but decided to just deal with the heat. It wasn't too awful, although there were times that I walked, when I would have preferred not to. On a positive note, I did run faster than I did yesterday, finishing about 2 minutes ahead of what I did at the 6 mile point. |

| I was not able to sleep in as I had planned. With my mind racing as I am almost back to work, I decided just to get up. After walking the dogs, I was out the door for my run. The one positive of getting up earlier, is that it was a tad cooler starting at 7:30am. I felt as though I ran better than yesterday, although my time was just a bit slower. I was able to push myself not to stop and walk, which has been so tempting lately. Needless to say, I got through it and am content that I was able to do so. |

Now that I am back to work, almost, and had to get up early, I decided to head to the gym. My legs felt good, not great, and remained loose, I picked up the pace a bit earlier than usual as the 10:00 minute pace that I was running seemed a bit slow at the time. I took up the pace one level and ran 9:50 for a bit longer than usual. I maxed out during the last mile at under a 9:00 minute pace. |

| The humidity wasn't as bad as it has been, although it was still warm. I ran the first 6.5 miles with my friend and then ran the final 3.5 on my own as she needed to leave early. |
