15.8 mile run this morning. Up by 4 a.m and out of the house by 4:30... This was a easy/tempo run. Goal was to get 6 miles of MP tempo in. I left the house and ran down past Costco and around new road by Formaster. Then back past Summit and out through the fields into Washington and then back home. My wife made her famous "Little Pizzas" last night and they did a number on my tummy this morning. I had to hit two stops along the way.

I did about a 4 mile warm-up and then 4 straight miles of MP tempo from Formaster around hill and down past Summit and just into the fields. Then it was time for a potty stop. After the stop I ran up out of the fields and through Washington and hit the last two miles of MP back up around my house. Then did a short cool down.

Pretty good run other than the potty problems...Now to start what could end up being a very long day.

3.2 mile on the treadmill this evening. Just a few to keep the blood flowing.

What could possibly motivate you to get up and run at that terrible hour of the day?

From Jon on Wed, Sep 12, 2007 at 20:21:07

I'm impressed- my 4 am runs were always at no faster than 7 minute pace, often as slow as 8 or 9 minutes per mile.

What are Little Pizzas?

What may you get this evening? Why is it a long day?

Jon-

Little Pizzas are just that. Little pizzas. A pizza made on a biscut type thing.

Tonight I got left over little pizzas and yogert.

Today was a long day because I had a lot to do with some work stuff and young mens.

But the works stuff didn't take as long as I thought and young mens didn't happen because of lack of young men. Just a few showed and I left early.

So really not too bad of day.
