Total Distance

7.8 mile run up through GS and over the hill on the powerline trail. Not sore at all from the extra miles yesterday, but I am a little wore out. However it's been a busy week with everything else too. Almost no pain at all in the shin.

(Blue Cumulus 282)

10.3 mile run this evening with the club. We left the store and Bill pushed the pace as he is really running well now and looking strong as he prepares for the World Sr. Games. Steve hung back with the other guys and Hayden and I just clipped along down past the the light by the high school and over to the potty park. Then we turned around and started to push the pace a little back to the store. We ended up hitting 6:49 min/mile pace for the run. It was a good little push on the last 4 miles or so. I'm not sore from yesterday but I'm tight- if that makes any sense.

Glad the shins held up okay and are on the road to recovery.

I got my massage at "A Better Massage" (I think that's the name) but it was at 54 S. 200 E.

It was pretty good, but I don't have any other to compare it too.

One thing that I liked, was that she was a marathoner, and new a lot of the places to hit (hip flexors, hamstring attachments, ...) and spent more time there. Also she incorporated a little bit of stretching to help further loosen the muscles. I felt like I was an inch taller when it was all over.

So, do you feel old today?

Great job on the 29 yesterday! That's got to be a good confidence booster to know you laid out that many miles in a day.

Glad to hear the shin is doing better.

Happy birthday man. 29 miles for 29 years, wow. Good luck when you 90 years old.

Your a mad man. I can't believe how fast your getting.
