Mizuno Wave Inspire 4 White/Classic Blue/Raven Miles: 13.34 |

| | Time - 41:40 (avg. pace 7:48) Temp - 77 Splits - 1 mile - 7:44 2 mile - 7:48 3 mile - 7:53 4 mile - 7:54 5 mile - 7:46 0.34 miles - 2:36 (7:40 avg.) Thank goodness for Rattletrap. This morning my Garmin didn't turn on. I would have flipped out and probably released my aggression in the form of bruises on my kids' butts (totally kidding), if I hadn't read RT's blog yesterday. He said he merely had to reset it. I went on-line to see how to do it, and voila (that's French for voila) it was back on in seconds. So I took about twenty minutes to clear out some of my history. Then I set it to alert me every 8:10. But when I took off, I felt really good. I felt like I could maintain the pace I was at for the entire run. Oh man, I just looked at the clock. I'm going to be late for work. Bye now!

Do not attempt to run 8 miles at 6pm when the only nourishment you've had in the day has been a slim fast, two glasses of water, 2 granola bars, and 2 pop tarts. Just trust me on that.
At about 2.75 miles this girl caught me. She was pushing it pretty hard so I tried to keep up with her for a little bit and make small talk. I should have tried the blade of grass trick on her, but I didn't think about it.

Beautiful morning to ride to work. Nice and overcast. Bit of a headwind when I turned west, but that helps to cool me down. |
