Did a 3.5 tempo today in 20:01. Started out at 5:30 pace, then faded in the last two miles.

Stepped on a drain plug today while in the shower. Got a couple puncture wounds in my heel. Was only able to run 4 today.

My run was spread throughout the day. I volunteered at the Utah State Elementary Chess tournament. It was a lot of fun watching little kids making illegal moves right and left, playing blitz against other volunteers, and dealing with and hearing of some very interesting disagreements. In one game, both kids were left with only their kings -- a situation where it is absolutely impossible for one side to checkmate the other and win the game. Nevertheless, one kid proclaimed 'Checkmate!'. HIs opponent shrugged and said "OK, I lose". It was hilarious.
