No run today, I have decided to rest and regroup for a while until my body and mind let me know when it is time to go. At this point I am not even sure if I want to compete for a while. It feels good to achieve ones goals and even to win but really its not what it is all cracked up to be. When you consider the things that are more satisfying and that have more significance in the eternal perspective such as family and friends everything else is just icing on the cake.

Victory is fleeting but the soul is eternal the slave whispers to the Roman emperor.

Easy 5 miles with one 800m rep at 5k effort. Sorry about my post earlier I did not mean to drag anyone down. Just experiencing some post marathon blues. My family has been needing me around more lately as my wife is now expecting our second child. So add all that up and I think you know what I mean.  It was a really great race afterall and I am pleased with my effort.  Just gaining perspective thats all.

Magna race today, Very fast boys including one 10,000m Olympian. Thought I might slip under 15 minutes but I felt somewhat flat. Tried to push the pace but Nick McCombs just would not let me pass. He took off in the last 400m with me hanging on for dear life but being unable to match his long kick. Dennis ran a fierce race also, opening a gap and maintained most of it through out the race. Sasha hung right in there too right up to the end but fell back after the last turnoff. He is definitely making gains again. Biggest surprise of all was Albert Wint who was only 8sec behind me! Wow! Excellent breakthrough performance for him. Talked to Chad later, he also had a nice shiny PR. Very pleased to be able to get to know so many new people.
