I was at the dentist yesterday, and the hygenist pulls out a copy of New Times. "That was me 10 years ago," she says. Then she tells me she wants to get back into that shape, and she's training for PF Changs half marathon. I fully support her getting back into this shape.

Rest day
It's funny to think that yesterday was the easiest of the next 5 weekends. I'm so screwed.

Tempe-Beeline and around, then back. Target HR was 140. I felt great.
This might be the last loooong brick in the heat.

100F for this run. No shade, harsh. I felt pretty good, though. Garmin died at 26:00, so I estimated the rest.
Never buy a Garmin 405. It's shit.

Friday - October 1

Run

1h 30m 01s
9.76 miles

I felt great during this run. A bit of pain in my knee, which may be weather changing.
Here's the suck part: I had a sneeze fit in the shower, about 10 minutes of straight sneezing. This happens during Spring and Fall allergy season; it's no fun. Anyway, I think I strained my lower back sneezing! I can't bend over now, and it's really uncomfortable to walk.
Someone call me a Waaaa-mbulance.

02m 07s /100 yards

Meant to take it easy, but I zone 5'ed it up the big hill just to wake up. I'm super groggy this morning.
I saw Becca at the end of my ride. She rocks. Go say hi to her.
