| 8 miles easy in early a.m. in Arlington, VA. Later a lot of walking on the Mall in D.C. Felt okay during the run, not great, but yesterday was kind of a long day of travel and then up late. | | Add Comment |

| 8 miles easy in Arlington, VA, with a few pick-ups. Felt good although had some pain in the back of the right knee. Really odd but I am guessing it's nothing to worry about. | | Add Comment |

| 6 miles easy with a few pick-ups. Felt good despite arriving home at 1:15 a.m. this morning and only getting ~4 hours of sleep. Right knee wasn't really noticeable while running but is still somewhat sore otherwise. I had wanted a mid-long run today (maybe 12-13) then easy tomorrow followed by 3-4 x 1600 at 10K race pace on Thursday. But now I'm not sure, I'll see how the knee is the rest of today. I'm not worried about it but want to figure out the best use of the training time between now and Oct. 7th. I've now had four easy days in a row and it's more like what I should be doing a week from now! I still want to get in the 1600m repeats tomorrow or Thursday and a 13-14 miler on Sat. or Sun., plus a "dress rehearsal" run probably next Wednesday, just 7-8 miles w/ 3 at MP. Otherwise next week will be quite easy. | | Comments(1) |

| 8 miles easy. Felt pretty good and the right knee issue seems to have cleared up. So I feel I'll be ready for a good workout tomorrow. | | Add Comment |

| 13 miles, first 4 to warm-up then 3 x 1600 on UGA track in 5:47, 5:47, 5:49 w/ 400m jog recoveries after #1 and #2 then an 800m jog after #3 followed by 3200 in 12:54 (6:34, 6:20) and three miles cool-down. Felt pretty good, pleased overall, especially with the fact that the 3200 wasn't difficult and the pace didn't feel too tough even after the repeat 1600s. Last workout before Chicago Marathon. | | Add Comment |

| 6 miles easy. Felt pretty good, only mildly fatigued from yesterday's workout. Marathon taper seriously underway now: just one 13-14 miler this Sunday and an hour run w/ 2-3 miles at MP on Wednesday otherwise pretty short and easy the next 8 days. | | Add Comment |
