Tempo run at 10k-5k effort with the last two measured and clocked at 5:22, and 5:14. It seems like 5:20 range is almost in the semi hard range of effort. But over 13 miles I'm sure it would get pretty dang tough if not impossible right now. Still, my fitness is edging up and heart rates are reflecting it also.  I just can't help but doubt myself a little right now still.  Lack of confidence? I need solid data that's for sure.  I guess what I need to do really is to race. 

 7th east Rio Loop. /  33:59 total for 6 miles with a short warm up. /   Stepping back in volume this week.

I hear you Steve. I'm backing it down this week too. Mostly being forced to by work demands. Are you running the East High run this weekend?

No, probably not, I really can't afford these races anymore. I just don't have a lot of pocket money these days.

Call me we can make it work...

Thanks Bill, I may just take you up on that offer but first there are some loose ends to tie up with my schedule. I'll give you a call if I can swing it.
