10 easy miles this morning, followed by 1 more with my seven year old. She's going to run a mile race this 4th of July, she's pretty excited. I'll be doing the 4 miler.

Did a local 4 mile race this morning in Alton. The competition wasn't there, so I probably didn't really push myself like I should have. I think 2nd place overall must have been 10 minutes behind me. I'm not sure if I can really count this one as a win. The race was at about 7100 feet and uphill the whole way, it was a tough course. I'm glad there wasn't anyone pushing me, because I don't think I would have wanted to work harder then I was.

I was most happy with my 7 year old girl who knocked 2 minutes off her 1 mile from the same race last year. She ran a mile in 9:07!! I don't think I could have done that at her age. I was a proud father. She took her division as well (7-10).

6 easy miles 4 @ speed. The speed wasn't to impressive, most likely a results from Wednesday's race or being to lazy on my part and not wanting to push myself more.

Nice and easy long run today. Felt pretty good throughout. Felt pretty fresh, strong and injury free. Felt like I could have gone 10 more.

Total 16 miles for the day.
