| Recovery run. I need emotional recovery now as much as physical. Nice service, but tough on me, especially to see my dad in tears and my son struggling with feelings he's never had to confront before. |

| Decided to do some all-out hill intervals to find out what my real MHR is. I've been operating with the lame 220-age formula, which only has a 95% chance of being in the ballpark, much less being accurate. So did a warmup jog on the treadmill, then set it on about 6% and hauled butt, with the Garmin HR monitor in place. Turned out the old lame formula is pretty accurate in my case. The MHR I got is within three beats of the formula number. |

| Tried out a new course outdoors, from the apartment down Fairway to the Old Mill, around the lake and back up here. Very hilly, but a nice run. Took it easy on the pace. It's late May now and starting to get quite warm and humid. |

Recovery from yesterday's recovery. My plan now is to build my mileage up to 30 or so MPW and then start a 24-week training plan based on Pfitz 24/55 in late June. In the meantime, at the suggestion of Jim2, I'm kinda doing a training plan for 5Ks and 10Ks based loosely on Higdon's Personal Best program. I hope to run the Firecracker Fast 5K on July 4 and that will give me a benchmark for where I am starting the marathon program. |

Despite taking Thursday off, legs were DEAD this morning. Lot of walking. I think this Friday-Saturday combination just doesn't work well for me. |

| A humid Saturday morning with the Crackheads. Murray Park is such a boring place to run, even when you go over BDB. Kept the pace around 10:00, which is OK. |
