20 miles with Dave and Logan. Up at 2:40 a.m to meet and be running by 3:15 a.m. We don't do this to win the popular vote and get fan mail. Those guys had a x-country meet today and needed to be done early- I just wanted to run with them rather than alone. We started at the store and ran out 10 miles up the Gunlock road and then back. We hit a avg of 7:06 for the run- miles 16, 17, 18, and 19 were at Tinman tempo pace- with the fastest one being at 5:46. The whole course is very rolling/ challenging to hold any type of fast pace. So this was a pretty good finishing effort. I got home and planned to shower and sleep until my 10 a.m massage with April... But Mik'L was pumped to watch the Tevoed Olympic with me. So at 6 a.m on Saturday morning when most Americans are happy to be in bed. We were on the couch watching Phelps and everyone else in Beijing. Classic morning at the Behunin house. Now Mik'L is making her world famous Pancakes. (Black Stratus 67.1) Just got back from my massage with April. Oh man I feel like I just was in a street fight. She said my hamstrings couldn't have been any tighter and cautioned that I may need to cut back and rest a little... Hopefully the rest of today and Sunday will provide some quality R&R for the system.
