| I had some trouble sleeping last night and almost stayed up when I let one of my dogs out. I chose to attempt to go back to sleep, which I am glad that I did as I was able to get the rest that I needed. When I did get up, I walked the dogs and then went for my run. I thought that I may see some rain, but instead met the sun. It wasn't too bad, especially considering that it is mid-late July. My run actually went alright as I pushed myself. With each mile, I ran faster with the exception of number five. I finished in 1:02:55. |

| My run today wasn't too bad. I am still wearing my glasses, which I am used to, but am definitely ready to put the contacts back in. Hopefully, I will be cleared to wear them again soon. After I walked my dogs, I hit the pavement. The first couple of miles were definitely on the slow side, but I was able to pick up the pace for the last 4+ miles. |

| After sleeping in and walking the dogs, I hit the pavement for my morning run. It was a tad warmer than I would have liked, but that is a consequence of sleeping in during the month of July. With only a week left until I have to go back to work, I am sleeping as much as I can. I started out slowly, but then picked up the pace with each mile, except for mile 5. I felt like I had worked and was content when I was done. |

| Once again, I woke up in the middle of the night and had trouble falling back to sleep. By the time I got up and walked the dogs it was already getting warm outside. I still chose to hit the pavement instead of the treadmill. I probably should have considered the gym. It wasn't awful out, but it was warm. My time wasn't awful, but it was worse than it has been the past few runs. I did improve over the first 3 miles, but miles 4 and 5 were slower, with improvement on my final mile of the day. |

| Once again, I did not sleep well last night. I did get up early so that I could meet my group at 6:30. I ran with my running buddy for the first 6.4 miles. These miles were a combination of running and walking as my friend is still getting back into the swing of things. I then ran the last 4.6 on my own with company of my music. I ran these last miles at a nice pace, with most of them dropping under 10 minute miles. Happy Saturday! |
