Running 2:17:22 [3] 14.56 mi (9:26 / mi) +1028m 7:44 / mi
Smith Rock Ascent, 15 miler
Woo! Made my goal of coming in the top 3 by finishing 2nd woman. Ran it in 2:17 compared to 2:14 (2015) and 2:09 (2016). So not too far off actually-in-shape-Ali. Had no idea what to expect on the starting line since I haven't done a running race in a year and a half.
Ran conservatively which turns out was a pretty good pace - kept not far off the original pace on the way back. The final (short) climb is always soul-destroying, but this time I got an adrenaline boost by needing to jump over a snake to cross the bridge. Then was in a pack of 4 guys - one got me, I stayed ahead of the two others.
Tom hiked the 4 mile course with Sylvia because childcare plans fell through. She was pretty grumpy upon my return, so got to nurse her as my cool down...
Other Reed professors did the 50k (Kyle) or the 15 mile (Andrew, Jim). Good little contingent, but means we missed the annual reach-the-beach bike ride. =(

Stroller jog/run 51:00 [2] 6.08 mi (8:23 / mi) +93m 8:00 / mi
And my day with Sylvia, so a stroller jog it was! Thought she was going to nap from the start, but she held out until almost home. Snuck in a shower while she was still asleep in stroller. (Yes, stroller was in the house.)

Again quick before something, squeaked in two 10 min tempos around Reed. Felt pretty good!

Running intervals 34:18 4.3 mi (7:59 / mi)
Pre-pilates intervals around the canyon and sports fields.
1-2-3-4-4-3-2-1 minutes with half as much rest.
Felt pretty good, gotta get back used to pushing harder, should feel more exhausted at the end! =)

Strength 40:00 [1]
Really good Pilates session, we're back in the dance studio instead of the mat room now that the students are gone for the summer - it just has a much nicer vibe!
Lower abs are getting stronger. Slow battle.
My final for intro physics is 6pm-9pm tonight, which inconveniently straddles baby bedtime. Ah well, good luck Tom! =) Hope it doesn't lead to a terrible night's sleep though...

Orienteering 49:58 [1] 3.08 mi (16:13 / mi) +59m 15:18 / mi
Yeah orienteering! Preview of Old Maid Flat. Really great to be running in nice open woods. Tom and Sylvia puttered around while I did the course.
