Completed one year of running at least a 5K every day

 With the Fass Brewery 5K in Conroe tonight, I have run at least a 5K (3.1 miles) every day for one year.  My average has been 3.56 miles a day.  My running streak (at least one mile a day per Running Streak Assn International) is nearly 4 years and 3 months long.

Stayed in town

 I stayed in town late this evening and ran 3.5 miles.

Group night at the park

 As usual for Tuesday, I met up with the group at the park this evening.  I ran 3.8 miles on the roads.

One week to surgery

 My back surgery is one week from today.  I am looking forward to obtaining some relief, but I know that keeping the streak alive will be a challenge, especially my "at least 3.1 mile" streak.  I waited until late this evening to run.  Stayed in town and ran 3.5 miles.

Dodging storms

 This was one of those afternoons with scattered thunder storms.  I went to the park late this afternoon and ran 3.4 miles on the roads.  There was lightning in the area, but no rain.  On the way home, I drove through a very heavy rain storm.  Then, no rain at my house.

Spindle Tree 5K Park Run

 I ran the Spindle Tree 5K Park Run in Magnolia this morning and finished in 56:12.  It was my 42nd race this year.

Hot mid-afternoon run

I went to the park in the middle of this afternoon and ran 3.3 miles on the roads.  Hot. 

Millican Summer Series 5K Trail Run, Race No. 5

 I ran the Millican Summer Series 5K (3.2 miles) this evening in Millican.  It was the 5th of 6 races in the summer series.  No mud this time.  I finished in 1:04:30 and was first of one in the 80 and over age group. After the race, I drove an hour over to Fass Brewing in Conroe.  They were celebrating the 3-year anniversary of the Fass Run Club.  I got there in time to join the celebration with a lot of good friends.

Hot and dry

 After so much rain for weeks, it has been hot and dry for about a week.  Guess that high pressure system found its way over Texas.  I waited until late this evening to run.  Got in 3.2 miles in town.

Group night at the park

 As usual for Tuesday, I met up with the group at the park this evening.  Ran 3.8 miles on the roads.

Ran in town

 I ran 3.5 miles in town late this afternoon.  I am so looking forward to the back surgery on August 4.

Sunday evening at the park

 It was hot today, so I waited until late this evening to run.  Went to the state park and ran 4.1 miles on the roads.

Dog Days 5K

I ran our club's Dog Days 5K in the very hilly Elkins Lake Sub-division this morning.  Finished in a slow 57:56. 

Early run in town

 With a race on Saturdays, I try to run "early" on Friday.  Rather than the state park, I ran in town early this afternoon when it was overcast.  Not too hot.  Ran 3.5 miles.

Fass Brewery 5K

 I ran the Fass Brewery 5K in Conroe tonight - for the 80th time.

Late evening on the park roads

No rain today, but I waited until late this evening to run at the park.  Ran 3.8 miles, all on the roads.

Caught in a storm

 I went out to the park this evening to meet up with the group.  After about a mile on the roads, an unexpected thunderstorm hit.  I headed back away from the lightning to my truck in the rain.  After a short break, the weather eased up and I finished a 3.2-mile run.

No rain for a change

 No rain today.  At least at my house.  There was a good chance this afternoon, so I waited until late this  evening to run.  Got in 3.8 miles in town.

Run between the storms - almost

 I went to the park this afternoon just after a storm had passed to get in a run before the next storm.  Nice 75 degree running weather.  I ran 4 miles on the roads - the last half mile in a heavy rain.

Spindle Tree Park Run 5K

 I ran the Spindle Tree Park Run 5K in Magnolia this morning and finished in 55:17.
