various virginia runs

Am catching up on blogging--I've been fairly good about keeping up with running (just not track workouts) since I've been in Virginia the past week.

6/19/2008 3 x 1 minute easy, 1 minute easy/moderate, 3 minutes moderate, 3 minutes walking plus warmup and cooldown

6/20/2008 Ran 2 miles (8:36, 8:46) plus four sets of bleachers at W&L track.

6/21/2008 (10 miles, 1:42:50, 10:17/mile)
Ran with Sam (blogidarity!) from mile marker 2.0 to 4.5 and back on the Four Mile Run trail, then from mile marker 3.5 to 6 on the W&OD trail. Virginia hills and humidity kick my butt now! I'd only run the Four Mile Run trail once before, and was happy to find out that it splits into two parts (one boring one and one through streams). It also has way less bikers than the W&OD or Mt. Vernon trails. I really appreciated all the water fountains and presence of an Exxon near W&OD mile marker 6.

6/23/2008 Ran about six miles during a WH4 trail.

6/24/2008 (3.75 miles, 36:41, 9:47/mile)

6/25/2008 (1.96 miles, 17:09, 8:45/mile)

6/26/2008 (3.58 miles, 34:37, 9:41/mile)
It is 90 degrees outside (weather.com says it "feels like 95."). Ow. I'm going to start plotting a 12-mile run for tomorrow (since I won't have time to do it on Saturday when in the Outer Banks)...now I'm actually motivated to get up at 6:00 a.m.!
