9.0 mi Run

Did lakes with Brunnq then ran to the baseball field at the alumni fields area and ran barefoot with Jeff (Brunnq ran with shoes on) for 4.5 miles, then ran home. Felt really sleepy so the run wasn't too good. Probably taking tomorrow off.

Good week overall though got tired by the end. I'm taking a down week this week which is much needed. Next week I'll add in a couple more uptempos.
