5 miles very easy with Elaine at 5:10 a.m. A bit sore from Saturday still.
4 miles in 37:34, 8:38 pace at 8:15 p.m. Very warm. Ran the alleys wandering from 50 East and 200 West plus around the high school. Ribs still hurting a bit, but not bad. |

| 5 miles at 5:05 a.m. solo in 45:18. 9:05 average pace. Easy pace until a more moderate pace last mile. A bit of a case of Billy-territis set it in. That's my name for the condition that happens when you see someone out ahead of you and you just have to catch and pass. Named after my old running friend Billy-bob Terry. Extremely warm for an early morning run. Near 80 on my thermometer. Light wind helped when the shirt came off. An unsightly scene, I'm sure. |

Annual 4th of July Tooele 5K Freedom Run. 335 runners this year. 26th place overall. 25/170 Men, 1st in M50-54. Ran with Tina until the last 3/4 mile uphill. She had a bit of problem with her leg, but still managed 20:45. She got nipped by Amy at the finish line and took 3rd overall women. Amy is the daughter of a co-worker and friend of mine. She was the best distance runner at THS this year and just finished her senior year in cross country and track. I told Tina that I wouldn't feel bad about not beating her, but it was just too close and she was in 2nd place the entire race. I think she did great especially for just turning 49!
Deseret News 10K next up on the 24th. I need to get registered. Running on vacation next week in Chicago, Kirtland Ohio, and Palmyra NY will be challenging. I plan on doing my long run along the Canadaigua Road. | | Comments(4) |
