Got up early before it got hot.  Felt better about my run/ stride/ endurance but the times were dissappointing..  49:09:12 or 9:50 per mile.  Splits 9:24, 9:33, 9:30 (I'm getting slower!), 9:47, and 10:56.   I felt better about my cool down mile up "the hill" from the trail.   Got to see (and smell) some Clydesdales along the way.  My buddy asked me "do you wonder if they feel the same way about my smell"?   Almost 14 miles this week and my weight is slowing starting to go in the right direction.  I can definitely feel a difference in my body.  Shaun T and Insanity helped but the work outs are so different and not comparable.  The 2 weeks in Vegas / Reno didn't help either (although it did help my pocket-book!!! :).
