    This is my first log. Today was my "long" run. For me, that was only a 6k run. Made the mistake of getting talked into boot camp before my run, so I was already tired and hot before I started running. I think boot camp would be better to do on a day when I do a shorter run.

    No run today - a swim day.  My legs enjoyed the break. Why does the water seem to be kinder to my body than the road?

    Did a short run today, 3.5k.  My legs were getting a little tired, but I didn't feel like I got much of a cardio workout. I was tempted to run further, but decided to stick with the Hal Higdon training plan and only do the 3.5k run. Afterwards, I walked another 3.5k and then biked 10k.  In the end, I felt like I got a lot of exercise, but never got the cardio workout I was wanting. I hope trusting Hal on this one pays off in the long run!

    Went for my short run, 3.5k, then did boot camp afterwards. I liked this much better than last time when I did booot camp first, then went running. Although it was still hot and humid (85 degrees and 80% humidity) at 7:00am, my body liked this way a lot better. It started to rain, while I was riding my bike home from boot camp. The humdity dropped 20% and the temp. droped about 5 degrees - perfect weather for biking, so I went for a 10k bike ride in the rain, it was wonderful!
