| I didn't actually RUN seven miles, but I walked/ran a 5k to set up cones on the race course. Then I walked/ran the same course a couple of hours later to pick up the cones, and then I ran about a mile in the middle to and from the other end of the park where the race started. All I know is that it was a lot, and I was pretty sore later. I actually had a little IT band flare-up in my hip (which I've never had before - it's always my knee), but it's going away.

| Probably should have gone shorter and slower and flatter, but I got to run with my cute niece, so it was worth it :)

| Hip is still a little tight and sore today, but it didn't flare up, and it's definitely better than yesterday and the day before. Hooray! Maybe it will get better. My feet are killing me though. I hope those Birkenstocks I'm getting for my birthday will help!

| My old favorite Wednesday run with Adam. We went very late, but it's been much cooler this week. Hip is much better. Feet hurt.

| Finally got a run in with Brenda. We haven't been in town at the same time for a while. I ran to and from her house to add the extra .8.

| It was mostly four miles. But I had to dodge a real, live skunk, a smallish deer, several cars and an assortment of bikers. To top it off, it was half comfortably downhill, and half not-so-comfortably uphill. It was beautiful.

| Today is the day - it's Amazon.com's birthday! And mine. I'm not sure whether being exactly twice as old as Amazon is depressing, cool, or just kind of weird. It's been a busy, crazy week and I didn't get out on a run until almost 11 today. It was hot, but not as hot as it could have been. I spent the entire three miles contemplating my new status as a forty year old and wondering if I should do something special to commemorate the event. I should probably have done some crazy training and run forty miles today, but that's a totaly normal, insane thing for a runner to do, and probably would have left me immobile for the rest of the summer. Not worth it, in my humble opinion. I have some twin cousins that marked their thirtieth birthday by donating thirty baby blankets to a charity. That would have been brilliant if I'd thought of it a year ago. So then I thought maybe I should choose something to do over the next several weeks or months - forty random acts of kindness or something. And then I thought of what I really want to do, which has nothing to do with turning forty, but would be cool. Maybe I'll get my landscaping act together and plant the Lambert-Erickson Memorial Raspberry Garden and the Brunson-Jensen Memorial Flower Garden (with roses and irises and snap dragons), and an Oregon Shade Garden with hostas and ferns. I'm so ready to have beautiful gardens around my house. I've been lacking time, money and motivation for too long. Maybe I can figure out a way to do it this year. It's not as selfless as donations to charity, but I think it might be a cool way to honor my grandparents and my husband's grandparents and keep their memories close.

| Three runs with Brenda in the same week! It's nothing short of a miracle that we were both in town all week.

| A beautiful run up the canyon with Adam. I haven't been up there in a couple of months. I didn't completely die on the hills, but they were pretty miserable. I didn't take any breaks though - I feel tough :)

| Kind of a sorry excuse for a run, but I procrastinated and it was all I had time for. Only 74 miles for July, which is a bit disappointing after last year's 92, but my goal this year is consistency and I'm doing much better in that department. Maybe I can reach 80 in August.
