After a long day down at camp, Timm and I snuck in a pre-dinner run on a beautiful summer evening. Out and back on the Burke Gilman trail, 7:35-7:45 pace. 40:00

Manette Hills loop, with my new addition of the short uphill trail by Harrison. I went a little too far and ran into a homeless encampment where the trail peters out, I won't forget where to make that last right hand turn now. I also won't be sending any children on that particular part of the run. Easy pace on a warm day. 43:45

Track workout night. After a real easy Jaguars practice (taking the kids to Hayward Field Saturday for the last meet of the season), I stuck around on a warm evening (80 degrees) for a Yasso 800s workout. I'd like to get 3 of these in before the marathon, and I have about six weeks more to do it. 1 mile warm-up, 9x800 w/200m rest between (which may be too little), then 800m cool down. The repeats started too fast, and I was without water. Still... 2:40, 2:46, 2:52, 2:49, 2:51, 2:50, 2:54, 2:51, 2:55. It's actually a pretty good set, if a little inconsistent. I'll shoot for 12 next time.

In Eugene, Ore. for the Track City Classic, and since I'm a year away from the master's category, I settled for coaching, watching, and doing a 5-mile run around the UO campus with Henry. We went in the warmth of the evening, there were tons of people around. From his apartment past Auzten Stadium, then to the north bank river trail and across the Wilamette, then through campus and back on the trail from another direction. It's a beautiful place and a really nice city to run in. I was impressed, and next year when we bring the Jaguars down their old coach may just hop in the 800 and 1500 and see what happens. 42:02
