i dropped my damn keys somewhere, so had to double-back to look for them, never did find them. it was too hot to be running, but i did ok. same pace as Thursday's 4-miler, so that seems good. i made my own electrolyte drink that i carried with me. did it help? i'll just assume it did, with the oj in it & sugar/salt. i'll just assume it did.

i think i'm going to switch to alternate day running. i'll aim for one long run each weekend, similar to what the Higdon plan has. but since i don't have weekends, as such, i can wait til Monday to run 13 miles. no reason to do it tomorrow. i'll just build my own plan to develop the miles and get in the 20-miler, or 2, by14th or 15th week.
