I'm redefining Slow and Fast Miles -- I used to consider Fast Miles as anything under 8:00. Now I'm going to define it as anything faster than MP (7:38). Today marked the 1 week anniversary of my BQ / PR at Boston. It was also this second time I've run since. My calves felt a little tight, but other than that, it felt pretty good. Ran 5.66 miles (Sorry Kathie for the weird number, it's a long story) with Eric. Splits: 7:37, 7:53, 8:04, 7:56, 7:37 (.29 mi), 6:57, 6:47 (.37 mi) AP: 7:38 ET: 43:10 I've been eating like a horse for the past week. Time to get back to some healthy eating, and see if I can't knock off about 5 pounds in the next month or so. I'm thinking about running a local 10K this Saturday. We'll see what the kids' game schedule looks like.

| Happy Birthday to ME!!! I'm 44, and darn proud of it...just one more year and I'm in a new AG!!! Woohoo!
Did my 10-miler at lunch (it is now a yearly tradition...that I started last year). It was about 80 degrees out there and humid!!!! It wasn't easy, but I did it..I hope to keep it a yearly tradition for as long as I can.
Briefly, I thought about doing 44 laps around the track..1 for each year on earth that I've been in existence...which would have been doable..but I'd hate to start that tradition, and someday not be able to "do my age". (though 10 miles is still far, as long as I keep running, I should be able to manage that..it just might take longer as I get older)
My darling wife is grilling some steaks, and a few friends are coming over. It should be a nice evening.

6 fairly easy miles after work. Another humid day. 81 F - 66% humidity - 12 MPH Wind (the wind actually felt good when running into it..for a change)
Ran w/ Eric, Darin, and Sergio.
AP: 7:58
The Mayfest Run (5K and10K) that was scheduled for tomorrow, has been cancelled - due to the Swine Flu scare (can u believe that??). I guess they're leaning way toward the side of caution. Oh well...my boys have baseball and soccer games in the morning anyways, so I wasn't going to be able to run. But, thought I'd record it for posterity's sake. |
