 Rough week last week with the low mileage and stomach bug that took me out for the remainder of the week. Good to get back at it today, and felt really good to get moving again.

Need some solid workouts in the next 3 weeks, STG is coming way to fast.

 

avg pace 6:59 min/miles (finally caught the 7 min/guy this morning. Dirty bugger!)

Nice easy trail run with Riley, Matt and Jon.

Coming back on off the trail and on the road we had some idiot that brushed me with his car. Riley threw his hands in the air like what the heck.

The kid had the nerve to come back and tell us that we need to get out of the Mother Pleepin road. I started yelling at the kid and he told me to go out to the road so he could hit me because he didnt feel me the first time.

Pretty frustrating, and maybe I am blowing it out of proportion. At the same part, I am really glad he came back, basically volunteered his license plate number to us. Thinking a visit by police for wreckless driving sounds good to me.

Overall good rust buster from being sick and lack of miles last week. First 5 miles were around 5:40 avg then the last 5 around 5:58 avg. Happy with the run, accomplished what I had planned for the day.

Met up with the guys at 5:00 am at the pond. Jon, Riley and Denver were getting in 20-25 miles today. I had to cut short due to my wife needing to get to work.

Pretty solid run today. At first I was dragging and wasn't in the mood to be there. Then as the miles started going the legs warmed up and had a solid last half of the run.

Beat the 7 min/guy today. Avg pace 6:58 min/miles
