Day 104: 5mi, 45:22

An unremarkable but steady five miler this morning. It will be difficult to get much running in over the next week, as I'll be in London both weekends with my kids (i.e., no running) and in Beijing in between, where I can run but only under a heavy blanket of jet lag. I made it above 25 mpw last week, and I am trying to keep my rolling weekly mileage above that level. I know I need to get into the 30-40 mpw range, but the travel keeps getting in my way. When I come back from this trip, I am going to start mixing in some speed work. I could keep base building for a whle, but I think late summer is going to be my best opportunity to try to get close to 5 minutes, so I've gotta get moving!
mile 1: 8:44
mile 2: 8:37
mile 3: 8:55
mile 4: 9:16
mile 5: 9:48
