AM: 9 miles with 4 miles tempo, treadmill
The trails around work were wet and muddy, so I opted for a treadmill run. I felt good enough that I throw in a short tempo run, starting at 5:27 pace and working down to 5:00 pace in the last half mile.

PM: 20 miles easy
My 10 miles after work turned into 20 miles. I "slept in" an extra hour until 6:30 this morning and got to work early to get a jump on my day. After work, I went out for a new run from campus over the Dumberton Bridge and found this quiet network of trails along a system of dikes in the East Bay. I turned around at 7 miles when I got to Coyote Hills, and then I added on some of my usual morning routes when I got back to get in 20. I battled the wind in some stretches on the water and wasn't that fast, but generally I felt pretty good.

AM: 5 miles easy
PM: 1600 (400 jog recovery), 1200 (300), 800 (200), 400 (400), 1600 - 9 miles
After a morning shake-out jog from campus, I met Kevin and Carlos after work in Los Altos for a track workout. The goal was to hit 5:00 on the first and last mile, and cut down the pace on the shorter reps. This wasn't anything to go crazy over, but it was certainly my first meaningful track workout in months, so I'm calling that progress.
Splits: 4:53, 3:40, 2:22, :69, 4:59
