Instead of going back and writing entries for all the days I was away, I figured I could just sum up instead. 

Friday I got up early and did an easy 8 on the treadmill in our hotel.  The rest of the day was spent looking at houses, I think about ten in all.

Saturday I slept in pretty late, then we continued the house search, and actually signed a contract!  After all this I still went and did a tough 12 mile treadmill workout.  After warming up, I did 3 x 18 minutes fast, with a 4 minute jog in between.  Since the treadmill speed didn't seem accurate, I had to run by time to simulate what would have been 3 x 3 mi. w/ 1/2 mile jog, followed by a cool down.

Sunday, after driving home from Syracuse I headed out for a 20 miler.  After the first 12 miles, I alternated fast mile/slow mile (fast being @ marathon pace.)  The whole run took 2:25.  Then we headed over to Mom and Dad's for a delicious dinner.

What a busy week!

Total for the week: 73
         for the  year: 754
