3 mile trial. 19:35. After warming up at 8:41 to 8:57 pace at 1% incline for 3 miles got off and looked and tried out other tms but came back to this one as it didnt shake but it was closer to window and sun coming through to add to the already too hot gym...due to weekend closure for holiday. I then got back on for 0.1 mil and ran 6:40, 6:35 at 0.5% then down to flat for last mile at 6:25.ish.....picked it uo from 6:31 pace the last 0.1 miles to 6:15. Tm hit 3.1 miles at 20:35. Ran 0.1 miles and hit a minute before i upped it to 6:40. Tm measuring pace faster. I will take it any way i can get it. Sg marathon called. Let me know that i get elite water bottle stations to put my water or special drinks. Also they want me to email some of my history in running the last two years. A resume is how she put it. Gotta do that. I sound important but i am not.

Ran before work.  Woke up before alarm at 420am.  Got out the door at 440am.  Ran 7.1 miles.  Saw three runners in the dark and joined the girl out in front and ran with her for about four miles.  She and her brother and father were running 4 miles.  She was done before me so I ran home from her finishing point getting 7.1 at 8:20 pace.  She used to run for UVU and is 26.  Lives less than a mile a way.  Fun.  Then I went inside and plugged garmin in to charge walked upstairs and Troy told me worked called and put me oncall.  ARGH!!!! up early for nothin.  Well not exactly because I met a fun runner and then decided to go out and make it 8 miles but instead ran til 10.1 (so three more) but REAL easy as after the brief five to six minute break my joints all ached in my foot and pelvis-- symphisis pubis bone burning.  So I just jogged it.  8:55 pace.  Total 10.1.   Really itchy from the humidity and the hives I still have from swimmer's itch exactly a week ago.  Rash still apparent and have been taking a benadryl 25 mg to a half other times.  Lovely.  I scratched at about six of them on my arms-- the blisters hurt to pop (they weren't itchy) but I was sick of them still being there five days later!!  Now they are scabs a day and a half later.  Oh and I picked at four on my tummy.  The others are barely visible and really didn't have a blister on them to pick.  I was just anxious at the time I picked at them.  Should have found something else to do!!  Activity days last night after work but went right to bed about 945pm.
