AM: 1 mile @ tempo with 5:00 jog recovery, 8 x Cameron Hill repeats (~400m) - 11 miles
I opted for the WaDuke trail for the entire run because it's 80% in the shade, and I didn't start until about 10:30. I wanted to get a mix of paces and efforts today, so I started with a mile at tempo pace going from the 1 to 0 markers on the WaDuke trail (rolling hills). I hit that in 5:20 and then rolled right into the hills. I lost the splits on my watch, but I averaged about 1:30. That may seem slow, but I'll forgive myself given that it was literally 100 degrees outside when I finished.
In other news, I pulled in two job offers today, which is a major relief. It's nice to get closer to some resolution on where we'll be living in a month or so. I'll write more on this later when I make some final decisions.

I got up early to run with Rob through campus and the WaDuke trail. After that, I made it out later for a shakeout on the ATT with Tom, who's staying with us for a couple of days.

Back from Boston but still in Maryland, I ran through Calvert Cliffs State Park to the beach and back, and then ran to Solomon's Island before turning back to the car. I felt just OK, but mild mid-day weather was an amazingly welcome change.

It wasn't ideal to take a day off, but I was prepping for a presentation for an interview in Boston tomorrow before going to an O's game with Valerie and her parents and then immediately getting on a plane at BWI. This is a low-key time of year for running for me, so a day off isn't the end of the world by any means.

Valerie and I drove up to her parent's house last night, so I got in a workout on the service road at Calvert Cliffs State Park (a small but underrated running gem in Southern Maryland).
