Weeks 6 & 7 (04.24.2016 - 05.07.2016)
This week was a sad one. Just as I decided I would buy myself a bike for my birthday in August, someone decided to break into my car and steal Rusty de Bianchi. My favorite cross training method has been stripped from me. But I joined Fitness 19, swam, and did elliptical instead. Sucks about the bike (and my car window) but life's gonna move on. And I guess I'll be getting an early birthday gift for myself...
Week 6
Clocked in my test 12km (7.5mi) at 59:07 (a 7:53 pace). My ultimate goal of sub-1hr is looking like more of a reality!
Then we went to Vegas, stayed up all night to drive to Zion for an early Zion hike (Angel's Landing!). Proceeded to get little sleep the next two nights of partying. Maybe got a little sick. But am now on the rapid mend.
Run: 11.1 mi
Hike: 9.0 mi
Week 7
I also accompanied Marvin at Road Runner Sports and took Shoe Dog for a spin. Here's what I learned. I have very wide feet.

Week 7
- Long run was intended to be a 10-miler... but I've been afraid of hurting my foot.
- For some odd reason, I've been hearing strange non-painful clicking in my right ankle.
- Barefoot speed/grass workouts are awesome!
