10 miles
Q = 7, E = 3
282 miles on Fireroad A
Got home from the trip and decided to go out for a run. 10 miles easy, in just around 1:20. Didn't wear a watch. A dog ran out from a house and wanted me to pet it while I was in the country. It looked like a pitbull or some sort of fun dog. It was a nice dog.
The wind was blowing from SSE at about 13 mph, so it was sort of cold when I had to run into the wind. Almost decided to run 12 miles, but then decided not to. I got really hungry towards the end of the run.
The right hip area was a little bit tight, and after the run the tightness was still there. I think sitting on the plane and in the van for so long may have caused the soreness. That's what happened on the drive to Kansas once...
Stretched out the hips and hamstrings and iced a bit in the late evening. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day for the right hip! I need to not have soreness because I have taken up Ben's challenge of doing 92 miles this week...I have a plan that will work:
Mon: 10 miles easy
Tues: 10 miles easy, 4 miles running to work, at breaks, and home
Wed: 10 miles easy, 4 miles running to work, at breaks, and home
Thurs: 10 miles morning, 10 miles evening
Fri: 10 miles, completed in however many sessions.
Sat: 4 mile prep for long run
Sun: 20 mile long run. Maybe go 21.

The trip. I went to Chicago for two more auditions. That's why I was in Chicago. I wish we could have done more stuff, but it is good to be back and have soft gravel roads to run on instead of a treadmill or cement (although I did not venture out of the hotel).

That's quite a plan! I predict you'll do it.
Maybe you should get a dog. They seem to like you.
Excellent plan. seems quite manageable. I hope your double 10 day goes well.
I'm excited for the challenge this week! Woo! Go running!
It must be rough trying to get in your miles while traveling. Bonus points for sticking with the plan!
